Question

Symptom Description: My baby is just 3 months and 4 days old. This morning, the baby was sleeping in the crib when it fell over. The baby did not fall out of the crib and remained in a sleeping position, crying and fussing. After comforting it for a while, the baby stopped crying. Will this cause harm to the baby’s brain? Previous Treatment and Effect: No treatment yet Desired Assistance: Please provide an expert physician’s answer

Answer

If there are no other discomfort symptoms, generally speaking, it will not affect the baby’s intelligence. It’s not easy to say for sure, but based on the baby’s current symptoms, there should be no major issues. However, you should not be negligent and should always be attentive to any changes in your baby. It is recommended to observe if the baby shows symptoms such as crying, nausea, or vomiting. If you notice that the baby has these symptoms or there are significant changes compared to usual, it is advisable to go to the hospital as soon as possible for a brain CT scan to confirm whether there is a head injury.
