Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my friend said her baby fell off the bed and might have landed on the back of his head. She held him and comforted him for a while, and he fell asleep. Then he woke up again after a while, and then he vomited milk. My friend is worried about brain damage and wants to ask about the symptoms of intracranial hemorrhage in newborns?Doctor's answer:
Hello, since infants cannot express their condition, if they suffer from external trauma caused by intracranial hemorrhage, they may exhibit abnormal symptoms. It is recommended to wait and see how the infant is doing. If there are any abnormal signs, such as excessive crying, drowsiness, vomiting, or any other changes in the infant's condition, it usually indicates discomfort. It is advisable to go to the hospital promptly for a head CT scan. Then, you can see what the doctor says about the examination and analysis.
