Hello. In general you shouldn't have too many concerns with a ball in the face as long as it isn't too hard. If he is active and normal, and no bleeding I wouldn't be too concerned. Check to make sure he has no broken teeth and if they are broken they may need to come out, otherwise as long as he is normal don't worry. If he vomits, acts lethargic, or tremors/shakes he could have brain swelling but that is very unlikely.
