Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you are right.
Brain heamorrhage can occur after a lag period.
So better to get done screening CT brain.
If this is normal then no need to worry for brain heamorrhage.
Musculoskeletal pain is more likely in your case.
So apply warm water pad and ice packs alternatively on head.
Take painkiller and anti inflammatory drugs.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these in 1 week but better to rule out internal brain injury.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
