Hello



I would definitely get a check up and a CT of the skull.

With those kinds of injuries you may have suffered a concussion and therefore, a good neurological examination will benefit you going forward. Tylenol is reasonable to take for pain.



Hope I have answered your query.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
