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.
What Causes Paleness Of The Skin In An Infant After An Injury?
My 9 month year old fell off the bed which is about 3 feet hight. After crying for about a minute or so her face began to turn pale. She stopped crying, then we played with her and made her laugh to see if she was ok. She laughed a little and the paleness went away. Right now I m at the ER to be on the safe side. Should I be worried?
Nothing much to worry as it is a common finding and kids turn pale after crying because of lack of blood supply while crying. Nothing to worry and no treatment is required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
