How To Treat Head Pressure And Pain After Injury?

I was wearing overly long pants and went to rush to the next room and slipped straight back into my tailbone and my head bounced off the floor. My 1 year old was sitting right there and all I can remember was opening my eyes I think and looking at him. I laid there for a min but had to get up because he was so scared and crying. Now about 3 hours later I have a lot of pressure all over my head and pain from the base where it meets my spine. In that crevasse.
