Headbutt

I went to a bar and a guy headbutted me. It was not a fight, but he headbutted me so hard that i bleed a lot and needed stitches on my nose.

I do not recall the guy bleeding when he headbutted me, but after i started bleeding i looked up and saw the guy bleeding from his head.

I immediately went to the bathroom and got toilet paper to cover my nose, later went to hospital and got 6 stitches.

I did read that you need to come into contact with a lot of blood and must be very deep to be at risk. Am i at risk seeing that my nose did need stitches?
