<human>: My 5 year old has been complaining of a pain in the temple area for the past few days. She says it hurts really bad but comes and goes. She also says the tylonol that I gave her last time did not help. If it still hurts tomorrow I will bring her to the doctor but it seems to come and go. Any thoughts on this?
<bot>: Hi, Is there any swelling or skin color change over the area? Any history of trauma? Is the area tender to touch? A localized pain over scalp of recent onset can suggest either a small contusion from trauma or a soft tissue infection. If she does not have significant swelling or redness of overlying skin, try giving ibuprofen syrup (100 mg / 5ml) 7ml three times a day for 3 days. If the pain is not coming down by then, kindly take her to doctor to see what exactly is wrong. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
