Default Post Concussion headache - do I have one?

On Saturday a Yankee candle glass top came out of a top cabinet of mine and hit me in the forehead. I had a nasty, swelled up goose egg which went down in a few hours after icing it. I just had a minor headache after, but no confusion, nasuea, vomiting, etc. The goose egg has now turned into a yellowish color, whic is now bruising.

Now yesterday and now today, I've had a dull aching headache towards the side of the head where I got hit and behind my ears - I feel fine otherwise. It's just a dull, achy feeling. I always get headaches so it's not really a judge, but this is a different type of headache.

Is the headache caused from the hit or something else? If it is, how long will these headaches last and what can I do for them? Is it cause for me to be alarmed? Any info would be greatly apprecaited.
