Every baby is the hope of his parents and the future of the country. Parents also want to give their babies a good and healthy living environment. One-year-old babies can already walk, and they are always full of curiosity about things in the outside world. They touch and look around, which may lead to some unexpected situations. Let us now understand what to do if a one-year-old baby falls on the back of his head.

First things to do

Check for consciousness

Check for injuries

When your child cannot move his hands or feet and cries out in pain when touched, check for broken bones or dislocations.

Unconsciousness, convulsions, persistent vomiting, ruptured wounds, heavy bleeding, and numbness of the hands and feet.

Emergency

If the baby is unconscious, vomiting or convulsing, do not move the baby and keep the baby lying still until the ambulance arrives.

When vomiting, let the child lie on his side with his face facing sideways to prevent vomitus from blocking the trachea.

If there is an injury or bleeding, check for any swelling. If the wound is large, press it with a clean towel.

When a swelling appears, apply cold compress with a wet towel for a while.
