Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my son has a laceration on the top of his head from two days ago. He got hit in the head with the trunk coming down, and it was bleeding. He is now vomiting, but it could be a flu that he has, because it is going around the house. He is 8 years old, Should i have him checked by a doctor?
I understand your concern. If the accident happened two days ago than vomiting is probably connected with an infection. But to be sure, every vomiting after head accident should be checked, so visit your GP or go to ER as soon as you can.
I hope this answer was helpful to you.
