Hello Stephs
Hit with pillow usually does not cause any head injury unless your head hits some other object. But in your case as you are having headache and ear discomfort , I suggest first you would need a sound sleep.
If your headache persists you need to take some non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAID) medications and see.
But if at any point your symptoms deteriorate or you feel disoriented, blurring of vision , vomiting,ear bleed or nasal bleed then you have to take a CT Scan brain ( plain ).
However in your case I do not feel the need for urgency.
Thanks.
