What should I do if my forehead hits the ground?

Patient's question:

The child is 11 months old and fell from a 60 cm bed onto the ground, with the forehead hitting the ground. They cried for a short while and then went back to playing. After half an hour, they were fed and fell asleep. Do they need to go to the hospital?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, as long as the child's diet and sleep are normal and there are no other abnormal symptoms, pay attention to carefully treating the injured area, and it should not be a big problem. There's no need to go to the hospital.
Children's bodies have weaker immunity, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, don't be anxious. It's important to take the child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and symptomatic treatment should be followed under the guidance of a doctor.
