Question
During the process of learning to walk, babies may occasionally exhibit unsteady gait, which could be a normal developmental stage but might also be a sign of certain health issues. If the baby had a minor brain hemorrhage at birth, although subsequent checks showed normal results, parents still worry whether the brain hemorrhage has fully recovered.
Answer
Based on the medical description provided by the parent and the baby’s head MRI results, the MRI did not show any obvious signs of brain hemorrhage. Parents can further consult with radiology doctors and the baby’s attending physician to confirm whether there is a brain hemorrhage. At such a young age, the possibility of brain hemorrhage mainly includes three scenarios: first, birth trauma; second, congenital cerebral vascular malformation; third, previous head injury. Apart from these situations, there are no other common causes that would lead to a baby of such a young age experiencing brain hemorrhage again.
