No. Concussion is like a vibrational injury to your brain cells. It does not cause any structural damage, it only causes short lasting symptoms. In your case if ct scan was normal and you did not have any other symptoms, I wouldn’t worry about it much. Always wear a helmet.
Next Steps
Pls consult if you want further evaluation.

Unlikely. MRI scan is more sensitive for detecting any injury.
