Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Indentation And Swelling On The Forehead After An Injury?
My son ran into the corner of the wall in the hallway. He was running pretty fast and hit his head. He has moderate swelling and what feels like an indentation on his front skull when I felt it. Is this because of the swelling or should I take him to the ER or his pediatrician?
hi, thanks for the question. yes that indentation can be due to the swelling. in that case the swelling will come down in 2-3 days. if am your treating doctor i would advise brufen and hot fomentation.yes you should see a doctor.
