Question
A ten-month-old baby hit their head on the morning of the eleventh, crying loudly at the time but stopped crying after being comforted. Although the area where the baby hit their head didn’t bleed, it was very red. Two days later, when the baby woke up, they vomited, similar to spitting up milk as a baby. In the afternoon, they vomited again. The baby hasn’t received any treatment before and wants to know if they need to go to the hospital? Shouldn’t be a big deal, right?
Answer
For the situation you described, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the baby shows symptoms such as vomiting, restlessness, crying, or refusal to eat. If there are any abnormal symptoms, please go to the hospital for treatment immediately. It is recommended to take good care of the baby regularly to prevent accidents from happening. Additionally, the baby should get plenty of sunlight and take vitamin AD capsules, which are beneficial for growth and development. The baby vomited after hitting their head, but you mentioned that they are in good spirits now, so there should be no major problems. If needed, a cranial CT scan can be performed.
