What Is The Treatment For Pain In The Head Of A Baby?

Hello. My 2 year old daughter bent down to pick something up under a table that has metal and stone on it and when she tried to stand up she bumped her head. I did not see it happen and assume this is what she did. She started crying immediately and was quite upset. I sat her down and put a cold boo boo bear from the freezer on it. When I checked her head, at the top back it feels indented/slanted. I don t know if this is from bumping it or heads are normally shaped this way. I felt my other 2 children s head and they feel like they have a slant as well. I am worried about her sleeping tonight and will call the pediatrician in the morning. Should I be concerned tonight as she sleeps? Thank you so much.

Hi,
Welcome To Healthcare Magic.

I had gone through your query and understand it.

This bump has occur to your child is due to blunt injury as you said. It is not necessary to have same shape of head in all siblings. So, keep continue the process of ice application 5 to 7 times in a day for 5 to 7 minutes. You can consult your pediatrician and nothing to worry about this condition.

Till the time you consult the pediatrician, I recommend you to give her liquid-Ibugesic-Plus (if no allergy), 5 ml, 3 times in a day at the interval of 7 to 8 hours.

I hope this information will be helpful to resolve your query and further queries are always welcome.

Wish your child good health.
Take Care, Thank You.
