My Son Was Brushing His Teeth Tonight And Got Bumped

My son was brushing his teeth tonight and got bumped by his sister. Jabbed the back of his throat with a toothbrush. A small amount of blood, and the right tonsil looks out of place. We had him gargle and sip ice water. We are keeping him under observation and plan to seek the pediatrician if pain or issues persist in the morning. Should we be "EMERGENCY ROOM" worried? He is 7, and has calmed down and went to bed calmly. Thanks
