What Causes Loose Motions And Vomiting In A Child After Head Injury?

My 10 months son fell while he is crawling and hurt his head...it is just a minor..he cried for 1 min..and later he was fine..after that he had food and slept.....In the night he was vomiting until the food was out (5 times) and loose motions(3 )..became weak....we are giving medicine for vomiting and motions...vomiting reduced little bit not completely ...motions are continuing still..why is this suddenly happened.....is it because of hurting his head..or any other reason(he is teething also)...should we go for scanning of his brain

Hello,

In fact, any abnormal happening after head injury in a child should be taken seriously.So you should go for non-contrast CT scan of the head.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
