Patient's question:
A 15-month-old boy keeps headbutting the wall, the floor, and the door. The slightest dissatisfaction leads to headbutting. This behavior has been noticed for two and a half months, and it has become particularly frequent recently. Just now, in the blink of an eye while pushing the stroller, he headbutted the front crossbar of the stroller three times. When he came back, he headbutted the ground while picking up a dropped spoon.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, I would like to understand how long the baby has been in this condition and what examinations have been performed. Based on your description, it is likely that the baby is experiencing headaches but is unable to express it, which is why it is head-banging. I suggest that the baby undergo a head CT scan to rule out conditions such as brain tumors or vascular malformations. I hope you can go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible to seek early treatment, so that you can get rid of the troubles of the disease. Wish you health.
