Question
The baby was hit on the top of the head by a picture frame on the wall two days ago. The baby cried for a while and then stopped, showing no obvious injuries on the head. Up until now, there have been no significant changes in eating or sleeping. I’m not sure if there’s anything serious, and I’m wondering if a CT scan is needed?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby was able to cry after being hit by the picture frame but quickly stopped crying and showed no other symptoms such as vomiting. In this case, it is recommended to continue observing the situation and no CT scan is needed at this point. If the baby starts to complain of headache, blurred vision, or vomiting, even if conscious, immediate medical examination should be sought.
