Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. 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 of above danger signs are present then you can follow wait and watch policy
for pain you can give paracetamol which will help in also decreasing swelling on the head.
also apply ice locally.
