If all the vital statistics are good and within normal range. Go for CBC blood test. And only if the platelets are below 30000/dl or if oral reception of food is not possible, you need to admit.
Else if you have no one to take good care at home you may think for admission for recovery and observation.

Hello,
It is advisable to get the investigations done. If platelet count is too low, he might need a transfusion.
