Dr. Joseph Bouvier answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Call primary MD: If the child fell more than 3 feet, it will need to be evaluated asap. If there is any vomiting, loss of consciousness, clear fluid from nose or ears, inconsolabilty or lethargy or any other parental concerns, get the child seen immediately.
