Q.

#asktheexpert hi doctor, actually my 10 month old baby fell from bed. And hurt his head. There was no behaviour change or vomiting. He is doing fine. But I found a soft spot on his head and it’s very soft and squishy. And I feel there is dent in the skull. I am very concerned about it. What should I do?

A. it is important to keep the child for observation for at least 48 hours and if the child develops danger signs like severe headache or x excessive crying or excessive vomiting or abnormal movements or lethargy or seizures then kindly meet your doctor immediately for examination. if none of above danger signs are present then you can follow wait and watch policy for pain you can give paracetamol which will help in also decreasing swelling on the head. also apply ice locally.
