Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does Accidental Head Injury To An Infant Require Medical Attention?
My 2 year old picked up my 5 week old and tried to put her in her carseat but dropped her and my 5 week old landed on her head on the hard part of the carseat. My 5 week old started crying, but when I picked her up she instantly stopped crying. Now she s really quiet. Should I be concerned?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. You need to consult a pediatrician and get it evaluated. On examination, if we find any features of fractured bone, then you need to get a radiograph done to confirm the diagnosis. I hope I have answered your query, take care.
