Thank you for the query.
It all depends how strong was this injury. If there is no swelling, no pain when chewing or talking, no nausea, vomiting and there was no loss of consciousness, this seems to be not serious.
However if any of mentioned symptoms is present, you should consult your doctor and have head CT done to rule out fractures.
