Patient's question:
My child is over 3 years old. The other night, they climbed onto a standing chair and fell onto the table, hitting their forehead on the edge of the table, resulting in a big bump. It has been more than two days today, and the bump hasn't gone down yet. When I touched the edge of the bump, it felt a bit soft, so I didn't dare to press hard!Doctor's answer:
This situation requires considering the impact of the collision and the presence of external trauma. It also requires considering the presence of mild edema and close, careful observation. Cold compresses with magnesium sulfate can be used on the baby to reduce swelling. Monitor the baby's dietary changes. Prevent further collisions. If the condition persists, seek medical attention promptly. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my 3-year-old child gets a large bruise after falling off a chair?" and is hoped to be helpful. Wishing you good health!
