Having A Big Bump On Head After A Fall. Should I Be Worried?
my grandson fell off a kitchen chair and has a big bump on his head. he has no signs of a concussion but we are worried because we read that syptoms can show up later. we are worried about what can happen if we don't take him in because he is not showing signs,but has a underlaying issue. thank you, trina

Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
Following is my reply :
1) Children dont get head injury so easily.
2) You can wait. Only if he vomits or feels dizzy take him to ER
Let me know if you have any more queries. I will be happy to answer.

Dr. Mahesh Koregol
