The baby did not show any further abnormalities. Currently, no thorough examination has been conducted at the hospital. The desired help: SMS notification as soon as possible.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Your baby's condition involves a scalp hematoma caused by trauma, which is typically a collection of subcutaneous blood resulting from the rupture of scalp capillaries. Symptoms include a scalp lump, pain, and redness/swelling. If accompanied by a concussion or intracranial bleeding, symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite may occur. Your baby shows no abnormalities, so there is no need to worry excessively. Wishing the little one a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
