Question

The baby is 11 months old and fell from a 60-cm bed, landing on the forehead. The child cried for a short while and then played again. Half an hour later, the baby was fed and fell asleep. Do I need to take the baby to the hospital?

Answer

Hello, as long as the child’s diet and sleep are normal and there are no other abnormal symptoms, pay close attention to handling the injury site carefully, there should be no problem. There is no need to go to the hospital. Children have weaker physical resistance, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, do not rush; it is important to take the child to a top-grade hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner, and to perform regular checks under the doctor’s guidance and treat symptoms accordingly.
