What Causes Fever In An Infant Post Mild Head Injury?
my 20 month old grandbaby fell and hit the back of his head last night around 10 PM. He didn t black out or anything, I made sure to keep him from falling asleep for at least 30 after the fall. we played with lego s and he had no problem stacking them up. But, today 17 hrs later he is running a slight fever. could that be a result of the head injury?

Hello,
I don't think this fever is related to head injury. I think it is just a coincidence. Anyway, it would have been better if you met a doctor to examine his head for possible injuries.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
