Patient's question:
Anorexia, nausea, poor spirits after vomiting, poor appetiteOnset time: October 28th evening
Laboratory test results: No abnormalities found in head CT
Previous treatment and effectiveness: No treatment, but the baby also had a fever and took rapid-acting cold medicine, expectorant and cough drops, and cefixime
Doctor's answer:
You should closely and carefully observe your baby's mental state and behavior within 72 hours. Is there no occurrence of vomiting? How is the appetite? How is the fontanelle? How is the abnormal crying? Sometimes vomiting may be due to excessive fright or a transient concussion. If the baby is in good spirits and shows no abnormalities, it is recommended not to go to the hospital. Of course, if you always feel something is wrong with the baby and can't rest assured, you can also have a CT scan for a thorough examination. A single dose of radiation will never cause interference to the baby. If there is vomiting, it is best to have a few CT scans. Moreover, you should pay close attention for a few more days, as brain injuries sometimes have delayed symptoms of bruising.
