there is a hairline fracture in the parietal bone of my 9 months old baby as he has fallen from the swing one month back. but now due to minor injury again on the same place, there persist a swelling on the skull. what treatment and precautions should we take?
Please report to an ER (Emergency room) physician immediately.
If the Baby is taking feeds properly, passing urine and stools normally, having sufficient sleep, active body movements, then no need to worry much. The swelling in Parietal area (Skull bone) will subside soon.
Also, closely monitor the activity of the baby and his vitals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Mohammed Abdullah
