Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. After accidents, headache, nausea and dizziness should be seen with caution.
2. An hematoma, or concussion injury requires evaluation.
3. Will require CT of the head for further evaluation. Meet your doctor for tests. For generalized body ache and muscle pain, ibuprofen would be helpful.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
