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 analgesic like paracetamol. Recurrent fall injury for a child should be avoided as it can lead to some chronic manifeshutations occasionally . Also teeth injury should be rule out in any such casfe which is commonly associated and can be easily missed out most of the time .

A. if the baby is not having any issues while feeding if the baby is sleeping nicely having no issues like vomiting because head problem injuries are quite natural to happen if the baby seems to be having all other movements as a baby used to do or natural need not to worry
