What Are The Symptoms Of An Occipital Stroke?

My 12 year old is on a swim team. He was told to swim 15 meters freestyle without breathing. When he finished he came up crying with intense occipital lobe pain. Later he slept for an hour & is now nauseous. He still is not feeling well. Should I take him to the ER?

HI
Well come to HCM
No this is not the stroke but could be due to exertion if the symptoms persist then you may take him to ER else this would come around, complete bed rest would help a lot, have a nice day.
