Baby got a bump on the head 5 days ago and it hasn't gone away. Is that okay?

Patient's question:

Baby got a bump on the head and it hasn't gone away after 5 days. Is there a problem? Did he hit his head? No, baby got a bump on the head and it hasn't gone away after 5 days. Is there a problem? Did he hit his head?

Doctor's answer:

!Head injuries primarily involve prevention to avoid intracranial hemorrhage. The swelling on the head is mainly due to soft tissue damage. If the child's diet, mental state, and absence of vomiting indicate no vomiting, the likelihood of intracranial hemorrhage is minimal. The swelling can be treated with many blood-activating and anti-inflammatory topical medications, such as Yunnan Baiyao. Pay more attention in daily life. The above advice is for the question "Does the bump on the baby's head after a fall still not disappear after 5 days? Is there a problem?" and is hoped to be helpful. Wishing you good health!
