A baby got a bump on the back of the head after falling, which is a subcutaneous hematoma. How is it treated?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it might be subcutaneous bleeding. This type of bleeding can resemble a needlestick, known as petechiae; it can also appear as a large area. If there are no symptoms of pressure, treatment may not be necessary. Severe hematomas can be considered for aspiration or incision.
