What Causes Dents Above Eye And Temple Of A Baby?
My 1 year old baby just fell onto my parents recliner bar and when I picked her up I noticed 2 small dents above her eye and by her temple. I am concerned, not freaking out, just concerned, should I have it checked? Could she have fractured her skull? She only cried for a couple mins, but it looks quite bruised...

Hi,
No need to worry as of now. Just apply ice packs there, and give paracetamol 3 times a day to relieve pain for 2 days. She will be alright by then. Need to see doctor if she develops excessive drowsiness or repeated vomiting.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
