What Causes A Soft Bump In Forehead And Vomiting Caused Due To A Fall?
Hi,my 10 mons old daughter just fell off from my sofa,about 26 inches high.and then she got a soft large bump on her forehead. She slept 20 mins after she fell,when she wakes up she vomits just a lil bit. I was wondering ifi need to bring her to the doctor. Would the lump will subside? Would she be ok?
hi thanks for writing to hcm . Yes it is important to take her to a doctor since she has vomited. Kindly describe to the doctor if the vomiting projectile or not . Also kindly check if she is breast feeding properly or not . Her orientation is normal or not. The bump will come down but probably she may need analgesics.However , it is important to first consult the paediatrician regarding this. Dont worry everything should be fine. Thanks Dr.Riyanka
