Answer
Hello! Intracranial hemorrhage in newborns with a hematoma volume of 40 milliliters is considered a large amount of bleeding. It is recommended to undergo surgical treatment immediately to prevent potential effects on neurological function. Once diagnosed, follow the doctor’s guidance for treatment, which includes conducting comprehensive examinations to determine the cause, symptoms, and other relevant indicators. The management of the hematoma may involve decompression, symptomatic treatment, hematoma evacuation surgery, and timely head CT recheck. Wishing your baby a healthy growth!
