Suggest Treatment For Head Injury

I was the victim of domestic violence two days ago. I was hit twice pretty hard on the side of my head (left ear area - open slap) both times i was knocked to the ground. Since the incident my head feels full - especially my left side - the ear it s self burns and seems to feel numb. The right side seems full as well but not as severe (no direct injury or contact). My hearing is muffled and i ve kept a slight headache. Mentally, i feel confused and very tired. Another issue is that I am cold, actually wearing a light jacket and sitting under a light blanket (no ac on) - I live in florida - the temperature outside is 84 - 85 degrees. Is it possible I have a concussion and if so how do i treat it.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that if this is the head injury then I would advise that all the head injuries need to be kept under observation till 48 hours because any thing could happened during this time period, take care and have nice day.
