Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
It is reassuring to note that there is no bleed on the CT scan, and it rules out any serious brain problem.
As of now, you can take analgesics such as ibuprofen or diclofenac for pain relief.
I hope it helps.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
