Suggest Remedy For Sore Cheek

Hi, I was hit in the cheek by a horse s leg (not sure which part as it happened very quickly) about 3 hours ago. Apart from a sore cheek I felt ok, but developed a headache at the back of my head that seems to be getting worse. No blurred vision or nausea, but my pupils are different sizes. The right one (opposite side to the side that was hit) is much bigger. This does happen to me from time to time, but combined with the knock and the headache I don t know whether I should be concerned. Advice? Thanks
