Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Please take injection tetanus toxoid intramuscular then wash wound properly. It may need stitching in case of the lacerated wound and local antibiotic cream.
So please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
If you're experiencing a headache and vomiting then take CT scan brain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
