Is Ear Ache Normal After A Concussion?

Last Saturday night I blacked out and fell backwards. My head hit the tv stand corner and bounced to the floor. I definately had symptoms of a concussion for the next couple of days. Now, the following Saturday, I have a painful ear ache. Is this normal after a concussion?
