Question

A 2-year-old baby developed a lump on the forehead after a fall, and it was still palpable at age 4. Should this situation warrant a medical check-up for the child?

Answer

For this condition, it is recommended to ensure adequate rest and regional physical therapy, and to use topical medications such as Yunnan Baiyao aerosol spray. Simultaneously, oral blood circulation and pain relief medications should be taken for observation. Generally, there is no major issue with this situation. Gradually strengthen functional exercises and undergo symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Children have weaker resistance and are more prone to related problems, so parents should take their children to a top-tier hospital for medical examination and treatment promptly, and regularly conduct physical examinations.
