Question
How should I deal with a blood blister on a one-year-old baby’s head?
Answer
When a blood blister appears on a baby’s head, it may indicate subcutaneous hemorrhage. Mild bleeding may resolve on its own, while severe hematoma may require professional medical treatment, such as aspiration or incision. If the blood blister is accompanied by compressive symptoms, immediate medical assistance should be sought. Additionally, if there are burn scars, scar removal medications can be used to alleviate symptoms, and in severe cases, surgery may be considered. Daily care and maintenance are also important to prevent infection.
