What Causes Headache And Vomiting In A 9 Year Old?
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...My 9 year old child had a bad headache last night and after an hour or so vomited. He eventually went to sleep. He had a school camp to go to starting tomorrow. If it is a vomiting bug I shouldn t send him but if it was caused by a headache/migraine I would. How do I know the difference? Thanks.
