What Causes Headache And Vomiting In A Child Post A Head Injury?
hi, my 2yr old hit the front of her head on a table. about 20 mins later she started crying saying her head hurt/scratching her head in pain. she also had beads of sweat on her face/nose area and felt a little warm. I put a cold rag on her she went to sleep but 10mins later she started throwing up, still sweating. what could this be?
