What Causes Vomiting And Headache After A Head Injury?

Hello, My mother fell earlier as a result of running. She slipped and hit the back of her head. She sat up screaming and yelling and was dazed for about 10 minutes. She then got up and started to vomit. She has been complaining about a headache for the past 3 hours. So is there any red flags to send her to the ER?
