Emma, if you're in doubt about the extent of your son's injury please take him to A&E or a walk-in clinic to be checked out. I doubt he's sustained lasting damage if he hasn't felt sick or dizzy and is otherwise behaving normally, but if it were my child I'd have him checked anyway.

Best wishes, Cat. x

Hi .

I have to agree with Cat that it sounds like he should be fine. Children bounce back better than adults.

Having said that like Cat says if it was my child I would still get them checked out. Always better safe than sorry.

I would sooner be told that I was over anxious than regret not being checked out.
