Q.

My 6m old daughter fell from bed, developed a soft swell after 4 days on right side of head, behind ear. There’s no pain while touching the swelling. A local doctor said nothing to worry the swelling doc will settle on its own. Has this happened with anyone else? Please suggest what to 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 excessive crying or excessive vomiting or abnormal movements or lethargy or seizures then kindly meet your doctor immediately for examination. x if none of above danger signs are present then you can follow wait and watch policy for pain you cazn give paracetamol which will help in also decreasing swelling on the head. also apply ice locally.
