Patient's question:
The baby is now 1 year and 3 months old, and the total number of times they've fallen and been unable to move has reached ten. Most of these incidents involved falling face-up with the back of the head hitting the ground. At six months, when they started sitting up, they fell backward many times because they couldn't sit steadily. After learning to stand and walk, they've had numerous falls or tumbles. Every time they fall, I feel an overwhelming sense of guilt. I've asked several friends around me, and none of them have ever fallen. Only one person said they fell off the bed once. Compared to that, I feel like I'm simply too incompetent. Although the child shows no abnormalities, I'm considering whether to have a CT scan done.Doctor's answer:
Falling down is a common issue in children. If the fall isn't serious and there are no abnormal symptoms, it should pose no interference. You can also go to the local hospital's pediatric department for a follow-up check-up and have a head CT scan to rule out any intracranial diseases, which would provide more peace of mind. If there are no abnormal findings, the problem should not be significant, and proper care can resolve it. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
