What should I do if my baby gets a bruise on the forehead?

Babies are young and lack the ability to protect themselves, so they are easily injured in daily life, especially the forehead is easily hit. When a child hits his head, the head will turn very blue, which makes parents very worried. In this case, the problem should be solved according to the child's condition. So, what should you do if your baby gets a bruise on the forehead? Let’s take a look at the solution below.

If the baby does not have obvious symptoms such as vomiting and drowsiness, there is generally no major injury and it is just a skin injury. This situation generally does not need to be handled. If the forehead is bruised due to a collision, you can use an ice pack to cool the affected area. Cold compress can effectively prevent the bruise from expanding and reduce the baby's pain. In addition, if parents are still worried, it is recommended that you take your baby to the hospital for a check-up.

What should I do after my baby bumps?

As babies are still trying to perceive the world, they are bound to be naughty and active, and bumps and bruises are inevitable. For this reason, let’s take a look at what we should do after a child bumps into something.

If your baby bumps into something, don't pick him up immediately. If the baby's bump is serious, parents picking up the baby immediately may cause secondary injury. Parents should not move and see if the baby can stand up by himself. If the baby does not touch anything sharp and is just tripped or falls, there will generally be no problem. If your baby looks pale or dizzy, go to the hospital immediately.

A brief description has been given above. Raising a baby is a hard yet happy process. Because babies are lively and active by nature, even if parents take good care of them, there will inevitably be some bumps and bruises. Parents may wish to stick anti-collision strips on some angular places at home, which can provide more effective protection from injury.
