Question
A six-month-old baby fell from the bed, sustaining a nose injury with bleeding. After crying for a while, the baby stopped crying and was still able to smile when played with. After being placed back on the bed, the baby began to play, but soon started crying again. The baby’s eating habits were normal, and there were no signs of a head injury. The baby fell asleep after half an hour but had an unstable sleep, frequently waking up and crying before falling asleep again. Is there anything to worry about? Is there a possibility of brain injury?
Answer
Based on the description, the baby should be fine at present and it is generally not indicative of brain injury. It is advised to closely monitor the baby. If the baby experiences frequent crying or vomiting, please seek medical attention promptly.
