What Causes Headache And Vomiting After Sun Exposure?

My 9 year old daughter had fun and fitness day at school today. She was outside in the 80 degree weather until about 2 p.m. About an hour ago (6:39) she started to complain of a headache which became so bad she was crying and then vomited about 30 minutes ago. Could she be suffering from heat exhaustion?

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
HI...it could be heat exhaustion or it could be an initiating event of migraine at the early stages.

Please take her to the nearest emergency room, check her blood pressure and hydrate her well.

Get her examined by a physician as there is vomiting associated with head ache.
