Q.

Hi.... My baby boy is 9 months old. Today he fell from bed to a height of nearly 75 CMS. He cried then and we relaxed him. In next 10 mins he is okay and continued his normal playing. will be there any adverse effects in the future ?

A. Any Fall injury specially head injury needs to be assessed properly . In any such case certain symptoms needs to be checked like loss of consciousness reccurrent vomiting or any abnormal moment or convulsions . Such case needs immediate medical intervention as there could be some internal injury . Otherwise application of ice locally to reduce the swelling and pain can be done along with some...h analgesic like paracetamol. Recurrent fall injury for a child should be avoided as it can lcead to some chronic manifestations occasionally . Also teeth injury should be rule out in any such case which is commonly associated and can be easily missed out most of the time .

A. good morning I would request you to please try to consult with your doctor to make sure that there is no internal injury I would recommend you to monitor for 72 hours that there should not be any vomiting
