Hello, Thanks for writing in. As you have said, your 5 year old has had a head trauma. Coming to your question: Subgaleal hematoma is a bleed just below the skin, I the galea layer of the scalp. You needn't worry for this as it will be absorbed itself I sometime. The fractures in occipital, temporo mastoid with bleeding into mastoid air cells will also get absorbed in few days. The pneumoencephalus in occipital region is little amount of air that bas entred the headc through the fractures. This will also disappear in due course. If your child has vomiting or disorientation then please take consultation from your doctor. Hope this helps.
