Recent head injury

I was upside down and fell on my head at an angle, possibly on my neck as well. In the moment I thought I was going to vomit. I laid on the floor for several minutes, breathing shallowly. I felt pain in my head and a sort of triangle down my back. Now I've walked around a bit, I still feel funny in the head but I'm having bad chest pain. It was so bad, I started to cry after a sneeze. Should I be worried?
