Brief Answer:
It seems to be a mild injury.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr. Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.

I have noted your child's clinical details. Based on this, he seems to have suffered from a mild injury. There is no need to worry and there is no need to take him to the hospital.

Watch for warning signs such as very severe headache, repeated vomiting, decrease in alertness, any fits, or any weakness of arm or leg. If there are any of these developments, you may take him to the hospital for a CT scan.

I hope my answer helps.
Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing him good health,
