Patient's question:
Today, a 3-year-old child pulled himself while sitting in a push cart with wheels that I was riding on. I didn't realize it until now and am very regretful. I don't want to ask him to pull me. How can I determine if his waist was injured?Doctor's answer:
Three-year-old children are very active. They are restless. Observe if there are any abnormal symptoms in the child's current physical activity. If everything is normal, there is no problem. If the child is uncomfortable in any part of their body, a three-year-old can usually explain it to you. There is no need to worry. Pay close attention to any changes in the child's physical condition. If the child experiences nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain during the night, it is recommended to take them back to the hospital for a follow-up visit. There is no need to be overly anxious.
