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 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 presendt then you can follow wait and watch policy for pain you can give dparacetamol which will help in also decreasing swelling on the head. also apply ice locally.
