Could Diarrhea And Vomiting Be Related To Accident?

my 19 year old son was in a car accident, he was check out at the ER, although he was most in a clench position with his body tensed up when his car was hit, it is now two days later and he has diarrhea and is vomiting. He doesn't appear to have a fever or miserable like from the flu. Can this be accident related and what should I do.

Hi,
Many a times patient with impact on head presents with vomiting,but diarrhea along with vomiting is unlikely to be related to accident,
But for assurance,
I recommend you to take an surgeons opinion on it.
