Patient's question:
Doctor, my baby fell and got a bump at home almost two months ago, but it hasn't gone down yet. It's on the forehead. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said to come back when he's bigger.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the recurrence of these symptoms in the child should be caused by subcutaneous hematoma. Generally, applying ice within 48 hours after the injury may reduce the swelling. However, this still depends on whether there is an intracranial injury. It is recommended that you observe the child more carefully. Are there any symptoms of nausea or dizziness? If not, you can wait and see. If there are, it is essential to go to the hospital for a thorough examination.
