What Causes Fever After Hitting The Head?

Hello! My child fell and hit his head. Everything was normal, but the next day he had a temperature in the morning and evening, he began to vomit. I thought it was gastric influenza, gave him painkillers. Has already passed two days after falling yesterday to him all was well. Maybe we should ask the doctor?
