Patient's question:
A three-month-old baby fell off the bed and hit the back of the head. There was a slight nosebleed, and it has been almost 24 hours. No vomiting occurred, and the nosebleed symptom is still present. The child is also particularly cheerful, so there's no need to get a CT scan.Doctor's answer:
I feel that the child does not need to go to the hospital for a CT scan at the moment. If the child has an injury that has caused a brain injury or fracture, the child may continue to cry, exhibit abnormal behavior, and vomit frequently. Currently, the child's behavior is normal, with no other abnormal symptoms, proving that the child is safe and does not need a brain CT scan. If any of the above symptoms are present, it is necessary to take the child to the hospital for a check-up.
