Hi,

Yes, the pains could have been hit by something during fall due to fainting.
The causes of fainting should be found out to see whether this is something due to weakness and sleeplessness and smoking or due to some cause of concern that needs primary treatment too.
Hence I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Consult your Doctor immediately for clinical evaluation, examination and necessary investigations:
MRI of brain, mastoids and neck as may be advised on full clinical examination.
Also needed is to take a prescription based medications and specific treatment once the cause is found.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T Chandrakant, General Surgeon
