Are Fever And Vomiting In A Child Post An Accident A Concern?
Is it normal for a 7 year old to have fever and vomiting after a car accident? He was in an accident around noon today he was fine at the time no cuts or anything but now he is running a fever and he projectile vomited all over my bathroom. Should I be overly concerned because he s so small and the accident?

Hello,
Your son is 7 years young and 7 year young can perceive many things. Your son must have had a shock out of the accident and that could be resulting in the fever and vomiting.
Also, try to recollect about his previous days and previous food that also could have caused the present condition. Because there is fever and vomiting, it is always advisable to consult a child specialist in person.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
