Patient's question:
What symptoms might a child experience after hitting the back of their head? My child hit the back of their head yesterday. They don't hurt and there's no bump, but they just started bleeding from their nose. I'm wondering what's going on. They ate spicy sticks today.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your child accidentally bumped their back of the head, which is generally not a problem. It is necessary to carefully observe your child's deep sleep and whether they are crying. It is recommended to give your child enough water to enhance metabolism. If your child experiences deep sleep crying or other abnormal symptoms again, go to the hospital for a head CT scan to rule out any accidents. Nosebleed is likely caused by a bit of heat at home leading to dryness in your child's respiratory tract. You can give your child Xia Sang Ju granules to nourish and soothe it.
