Can Concussion Cause Diarrhea?
can a concussion somehow be linked to diarrhea? my son fell and hit his head about 24 hours ago, he had a bad headache for about 3 hours afterwards. he felt better this morning, but throughout the day his headache has gotten worse again, and he now has diarrhea, and he vomited once. this is about 24 hours later. could it just be coincidence?

Hi,
You are reporting that he has had vomiting and diarrhoea after 24 hours of a concussion. Please refer your son at ER. it probably is related with a concussion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
