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