Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

For the next 48 to 72 hours keep looking for the below-mentioned signs:

1. Continuous vomiting
2. Up rolling of eye balls or seizures
3. Loss of consciousness
4. Weakness of any particular body part
5. Not recognizing parents and caregivers

If this were not there, then you need not worry. But if these appear, then take him to the nearest Emergency room as soon as possible.

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

Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani
