Question
My seven-year-old child’s head struck an icy concrete ground, and I was not present at the time, so I’m not sure of the exact impact location. A CT scan was conducted and no abnormalities were found. However, the child has been experiencing pain in the parietal region for a week. What could be the cause?
Answer
Even without abnormalities detected in the CT scan, a severe impact could still result in delayed brain injury. It is advisable to seek immediate medical attention for a detailed examination, and further tests may be necessary to assess for possible delayed injuries. These recommendations are for your reference, and I hope your child recovers soon!
