How to treat a swollen face from a fall in a 1-year-old baby

Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How should a 1-year-old baby's swollen face be treated after a fall?

Doctor's answer:

First, don't worry. You can apply cold compresses within 24 hours, and heat therapy can be used after 24 hours. Heat therapy can promote the dissipation of bruising. Then, you can take some anti-inflammatory medication to prevent infection, and you can also apply orthopedic water externally.
Hello! Your child has roseola, which is caused by a viral infection. Roseola is a viral infection characterized by fever for three or four days, followed by the appearance of a rash as the fever subsides, or the rash appearing as the fever decreases. This rash is generally not itchy, although a few children may experience itching. For those without itching, there's no need to worry, as the rash will naturally disappear within one to two days without leaving any pigmentation or scaling.
