Why Is My Child Throwing Up After Being Hit Between Nose And Head By A Pool Step?

Hi, my daughter (8yrs) hit her head and nose on a pool step while swimming today, it happen 7hrs ago but she says her head still hurts and she can't stop throwing up. Do you think the throwing up has something to do with hitting her upper nose and forehead?

Hi. This throwing up with history of injury on her head and nose is a matter of concern. This indicates head injury and you need to take her to your dr. (paediatrician or neurologist) immediately and get advise. They may advise CT Scan Head for her. Please don't ignore and take proper advise. Thanks.
