Five-month-old baby fell on the back of his head

In fact, it is inevitable for babies to have bumps and bruises during their growth process. In fact, there is no need to panic too much about general bumps and bruises, but if a five-month-old baby accidentally falls off the bed while sleeping and hits the back of the head, then parents should pay attention. Because the baby's brain and bones are not fully developed during this period, it is best to go to the hospital for examination to ensure safety.

When the baby just falls, we should observe for 3 to 7 days. If the baby does not show other symptoms of discomfort within 3 to 7 days, it means that the baby has no problems. If the baby shows some abnormal conditions within 3 to 7 days, such as vomiting, sudden drowsiness, or sudden crying, these conditions should attract everyone's attention, and the baby should be taken to the hospital for examination in time to avoid more serious consequences!

Yesterday we checked whether the baby had any bleeding or swelling when he fell! If so, you should take the baby to the hospital in time to avoid bacterial infection from the wound and cause serious consequences! In addition, you need to observe whether the child's crying is normal after falling, whether he is unconscious or even in a coma. If so, you need to take the baby to the hospital for a brain CT scan in time!

Also, in the few days after the baby fell, did he vomit, become sleepy, or cry non-stop? If so, we should take the baby to the doctor immediately to avoid serious consequences.

There is also a situation where the baby will bleed from all seven orifices after falling, which means the baby is already in a very serious condition! Everyone must pay attention!

If a child has a lump but no other symptoms, we don't need to worry too much! Parents can choose to use cold compresses to relieve the pain of their children, or apply a little sesame oil to help the child reduce swelling! However, once the above situations occur, you should seek medical attention in time!

It is normal for children to fall, but we should pay more attention to it and try to prevent children from falling. Especially the head of a child is very fragile and has many connected nervous systems. We can put a thin and soft mat around the child's activities to prevent the child from suffering serious trauma on the hard ground!
