Head trauma: Take your son and go to an ER immediately. Do not wait. This could be life-threatening. Hope this turns out well and please give us a followup. Best wishes.

See Your Doctor Now: 6 yr old "hit on head...severe headache, hi fever & vomiting". Your child has symptoms of a serious nature. Your son's headache could be related to the trauma however, the presence of fever and vomiting suggest he may have a serious infection. Your son should see his doctor IMMEDIATELY to ensure correct diagnosis and prompt treatment.
