What Causes Diarrhea After Hitting Head?

My 6 year old son hit himself in the head with a Hammer today around 5:30 pm. He wanted to go to bed and I would not let him. He does have a goose egg where the hammer hit. Around 9:30 he started having really runny diarrhea. could this be from hitting his head? Do I need to take him some where? He never acted weird at all after he hit his head.

Take him to a physician once [pediatrics if possible]. Physical examination will be helpful.
