I take melatonin about an hour before bed, I think it helps me fall asleep better. Sometimes I still randomly wake up during the night and have a hard time getting back to sleep, not a problem I had prior to the injury. From what I understand, if you feel like you need the sleep/rest you should try to give it to yourself, it will only help. Best wishes!
