Hi. What exactly did you have a CT of - was it just your head or did it include your cervical spine (neck). If you had a CT of your cervical spine and this was normal, then the likelihood of any significant injury is very low. If you did not have your cervical spine imaged, then I would suggest this is a priority now and you need to visit your Emergency Department - ideally the same one that you visited initially following your injury.
