Does a fracture caused by falling head first require surgery?

Patient's question:

14-year-old boy. Head injury causing a fracture. Surgery required?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if a fracture occurs, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner. If there is a dislocation, surgical treatment is required. Children have weaker immunity, so they are prone to pediatric neurosurgery. For parents, do not be anxious and should take the child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for the child and receive symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
