A two-year-old child accidentally bumped a lump on the head. The parent should

Patient's question:

A child accidentally bumped his head and got a lump. What should parents do for the child's best interest? What methods have been used for previous treatment and the results? No treatment has been administered yet. What kind of assistance is needed? How should parents act?

Doctor's answer:

Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to speak. Based on your simple clinical diagnosis description, it could be local folliculitis, or it might be a subcutaneous hematoma caused by trauma. Advice: I suggest you pay attention to the child's guardian to make sure they don't bump into anything. Usually, it will subside within a few days. If it is folliculitis, I recommend applying erythromycin ointment. Wishing you good health. If you have any doubts, please feel free to speak, and I am very happy to be of service to you. Thank you.
