Default 'Friendly' smack on the head

im an 19 year old, 5'11 135 pound caucasion male with post concussion syndrome, anxiety/depression, neck issues.
Yesterday was my birthday and I must say it was one of the worst ones of my life. I decided to go out with some friends but before I could even get to the restaurant, I ran in to someone I know when I was exiting the metro.
The guy is a short but really stocky and strong ex-football player who was really excited to me I guess. He gave me a big props and hug but then worst thing that could possibly happen happened...
He smacked me pretty hard on the top of my head. It stung a fair bit and even today I can still feel it and its been radiating down to my forehead leaving me with a bit of a dull headache.

It was definitely one of the most devastating events in my life and the whole night after this happened, all I could think off was getting home so I could wallow in my despair and shed a few tears. I was supposed to be studying all day today but instead all I could do was lay in bed or on the couch in front of the tv, it was a really hard day, didn't even step outside or eat much really.
What do you guys think about what happen, ive been having a little bit of a headache today and the area where I was hit is still a little tender (theres no bruising but I can still feel the area a bit) ? Does this sound damaging or is it just anxiety or maybe a bit of a setback? Im gonna make an appointment with a doctor for next week either way to talk about what happened but it cant hurt for to post here and get some different perspectives or opinions.
