This is likely a coincidence. If he is acting normally and eating and drinking well then I would continue to monitor him. If he starts to bleed from his nose or anything else changes, I would contact your vet. Now, if he is sneezing constantly then I would be concerned. He could have gotten something stuck in his nose. In this case, I would take him to see your vet so they can do a nasal exam on him. I hope this helps.

    This sign is possibly due to the soft tissue trauma on his nose/face due to the fall. If the signs persist I would recommend a check up in the next 24 hours, otherwise I would not be extremely worried about it. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
