Head Injury, Dizzy, No Bleeding. Headache, Painful. Should I Get A CAT Scan?

Thanks for the query.
From the information provided to me it looks like you have hurt one of the nerves which travel from the neck and supply the scalp which can cause pain and dizziness. None of the signs mentioned here suggest the possibility of bleed in you.
So I personally feel CAT scan is not required at this point of time. I want you to take a pain killers for next 24-48 hours. A good sleep will get you out of your dizziness and make you fresh.
I am sorry you are dealing with this frustrating concern. If pain, dizziness and drowsiness persists a CAT scan may be required.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups.
Wish you good health.
