At least call.: The child should have been seen at the doctor or at the ER shortly after the incident. The child needs monitoring after this event at least overnight. At least call the doctor tonight and get the pediatric or family practitioner advice. I say the child should go to the ER to be checked and have a listen to the lungs. BEst wishes
