Head Injury. Headache, Pain In Temple, Eye Pain. Worried

about 5 months ago i fell and bang my head and the ground (to the right side of my temple). I didnt even have time to put my hands out to save myself so it was a full force fall. I naturally felt sore the next day, but I also felt sick, this continued for a few days. I didnt go to a doctor. I have however, been having headaches , like tension headaches right across my forehead . Yesterday though, on my way home from work, i real severe pain shot from what seemed like my right temple right over my head. A few moments later, I had a severe pain in my left eye which throbed a few times. What really has me worried, is that I went to an exercise class and had to stop and hold my head in my hands, as the pain right across from temple to temple was so severe. Am I being silly by NOT going to a doctor? I dont like bothering doctors for no apparent reason
