Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Head trauma can result in many symptoms such as a headache, nausea, and vomiting. There is no relation between head injury and stomach symptoms. Stomach problems mostly result from viral infection or contaminated food.

I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Take care.
