Baby Vomiting After Fall

by zaheer

My 10 months old baby fall down form the cot and was little bleeding from the nose. I took him to the doctor and she said the bleeding was because of cut in the nose. But my problem is that after that incident after completing his food he has started vomiting. I am afraid, why is so?

Get a second opinon
by: Brandi (baby help line)

Hello Zaheer,

If your baby is persistently vomiting after a fall it is normally a sign of a head injury called a concussion. Another sign of a concussion is clear drainage from the nose mouth or ears. (You can find more warning signs to look for after a fall here.

My advice is to go to your nearest minor emergency clinic or emergency room. Letting this go on for too long could be bad for your baby's brain. Please seek a second opinion! It could be something else but it is better to be safe than sorry!

Hope this helps,

Brandi

concussion or blood
by: Anonymous

I agree with the second opinion. I worked as an pediatric ER nurse for years and vomiting after a fall and hitting head is symptoms of a concussion. IF baby only cut his nose, the cut may be bleeding and the blood dripping post-nasal may induce vomiting. Either way your pediatrician or other health care provider should follow up.
