Question
The 3-month-old baby accidentally bumped their head. Concerned about potential future development issues, what should be done?
Answer
After the bump, the baby cries loudly but does not show signs of loss of consciousness or other brain-related symptoms. It is advisable to observe the baby initially. If the baby appears alert, has no nausea or vomiting, there is generally no serious concern. If you are worried or have doubts, you can go to the hospital for a CT scan to confirm. In most cases, if the brain is not damaged, it will not affect the baby’s future development.
