What Causes Warm Sensation And Excessive Sweating Post Head Injury?

My 8 month daughter was playing with my friends son. He bumped her on the head withone of his toys. She cried for a few seconds, but has since been acting normal. About 15-20 minutes after I noticed she felt warm and feels sweaty. Can this be related to being hit on the head?

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...this is not related to the trivial head injury she got during playing. But to comfort you I will tell you the danger signs of head injury. If these are present I suggest you to take her to emergency room immediately.
1. Vomiting continuously
2. Seizures
3. Watery of bloody discharge from ears and nose
4. Unconsciousness
5. Altered sensorium or behaviour.
