A member asked:
My son fell and hit the back of his head earlier today. about an hour and a half later he had a slow nose bleed for a couple of minutes. should we take him to the emergency room?

Yes: Err on the side of caution. Needs an exam to rule out concussion as well as other types of more subtle injuries. Nosebleed may be unrelated but if not may indicate more severe trauma than you realize. Best to get baseline evaluation.
