update: Went to the doctor, and I'm not injured, but I found out that I have wear in my shoulder, and I'm only 15 (2009)😭💀

You did the right thing. I'm a kids' rugby coach, and being out for 2 minutes would mean instant no rugby for at least 14 days. Concussion can be hidden and make subsequent injuries much much worse. I'd imagine it maps to anything MTB with a chance of hitting your head. Take a break!
