Should I Take Her To A Doctor As She Is Having Fever, Vomiting And Headache After A Fall?

My daughter hit her side of her head on her ear by falling backwards off our couch & hitting the corner of a wooden foot stool. She bruised her upper ear & behind her ear. Last night she developed a fever & has had a mild headache all day, vomited once.Somewhat of a bellyache also. Should I have her see her doctor?

Hai....usually trivial head injuries need not be worried. But as she had a vomiting & headache... I recommend you consult your pediatrician immediately, to make sure she doesn't have high blood pressure or low heart rate. Happy to help anytime & if you like my reply, kindly rate it.
