Confused Can a slap to the back of the head cause damage?

Hello everyone, I’ve been slowly making progress on getting over my anxiety but when I’m almost close to getting over it for the most part another incident happens to me creating extreme worry. For example, today I got slapped in the back of the head by a friend at school (I’ve told him to not do it to me after the incident) but I am now very concerned of whether this has cause and damage to my brain? As soon as it happened the back of my head stung for a few minutes and afterwards I had some pain in my nose bridge and eye area and a mild headache on the sides of my head (which I think may have been a tension headache). Also it’s been a few hours since the incident and the back of my head feels numb but doesn’t hurt (only the sides of head hurt as of right now), but is it possible this would’ve caused brain damage? Also what would be the contact/acceleration duration of a hand impacting the back of the head compared to the head hitting against a wall?
