Are Fever And Vomiting Due To Concussion?

My friend is 71 years old and woke up this more with stomach pain and now has a fever of 101. He can t keep anything down including fluids. A few days ago he fell and hit his head and twisted his back. Could this 2 things be related? Does he need to go to the er to be checked out?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. This isn't likely related to the head and back trauma but he needs to see a doctor right away since he'll soon get very dehydrated. He may have either a gall bladder problem or pancreatitis.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ralph Chambers
