What Causes Nausea, Headache And Numbness In Limbs After A Head Injury?

Hit my head on the wall the other night in the middle of the night. Went back to sleep but in the morning(yesterday) had headache and then throughout the day became very weak. I felt weird, like this high feeling all day I had nausea, numbness in legs and arms and very weak to move off the couch. Troubles sleeping last night because of tension in my head/face, and like my body wouldnt let me fall asleep when I was getting close. Today i feel fine, just a bit off but not all those symptoms. Should I go to doctors to get checked out even though i feel okay at the moment?
