<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.My 2 12 yr. old fell off the bed and hit his head. He cried, and then vomited. He was also sleepy, but I did not let him sleep. He seems alert now, and talks coherently. Should I do anything...should I take him to a Dr.? Pleasse tell me...why dont doctors hellp a desperate mother free?  <response>: There are certain ominous signs of head injury that we need to look out for. They are: Vomiting Loss of consciousness or altered consciousness Severe headache ConvulsionsThese signs could indicate something serious. The vomiting and the feeling sleepy after that raise the doubt and signify the requirement of a CT scan of the brain. You should definitely take him to a doctor and get him evaluated. If the reports are relieving, doctors would definitely be able to reassure you.
