Facial injury?

I had a soccer game yesterday and I got hit directly in the cheek bone with a ball that was kicked at full force by a highschool boy. There is minor swelling and bruising but pretty much my whole left side of my face hurts and I have neck pain which causes a constant headache. I know this is a dumb question but is there a chance this may lead to more serious injury?

This is not a dumb question in fact it is a very good question. Yes if you are having a headache or any dizziness it could be serious, you may have a concussion, and the force could have caused whip lash it would be a good idea for you to get checked out by a doctor just to be safe.

YEAH!!!! Go to a doctor a.s.a.p. don't risk anything! I ignored by knee and I ended up tearing my ligament.
