Baby fell off the bed face down?

When parents are taking care of their babies, they are bound to be careless and the baby falls directly off the bed. Some babies lie face down on the ground, and some babies lie head up. If a baby falls off the bed, you must first observe the baby's sleep and eating habits. If you find that the baby is sleepy, vomiting, etc., you must seek medical attention in time and never take it lightly. Parents must be careful when taking care of their babies, especially after the baby can turn over.

If a child falls off the bed and there is no other abnormality in the child, and the child returns to normal after crying, this situation is generally considered normal. If the child keeps crying, he needs to go to the hospital for timely treatment.

Because children's development is not complete, their bones are more flexible than those of adults. This means that even if they fall, children are less likely to suffer fractures. However, this does not mean that this can completely rule out the possibility of a child's fracture. If the injury is severe and serious, and the part of the body that was injured is serious, it can still cause concussion, skull fracture, intracranial hematoma, etc. I suggest that you take your child to the hospital for some relevant examinations, such as a head CT scan, which is very important.

If the baby cries but does not bleed, there is basically no problem. However, pay attention to whether the baby has vomiting, noise and refusal to sleep within 48 hours. Generally, you should not let the baby sleep immediately within 2 hours after a fall. Remember, if a certain part of the body becomes red and swollen after the fall, apply cold water or ice cubes within 24 hours.

If the baby does not cry and just likes to sleep, he needs to be taken to the hospital immediately. The swelling generally takes 2 weeks to go away.
