Yes, and even if he wouldn't admit to being sick, or if he did admit it but said not to worry? Ben would still worry. His fault or not. And he was sure this was at least part his fault for being stuck in another strange world or realm.

"Yeah, hang on a minute. And, uh, don't try to sneeze? Or do and let's see if it sends you somewhere nicer." he said and started to back out of the room, only to pause. "Please be careful up there. I'm not sure I really want to just leave you alone in here..."

But he'd go get a ladder none the less, because there was no way 'drop and i'd catch you' would be safe, and he was too scared to call his creatures out to help, so that was not happening. Ladder it was.
