My son is 8 months old and rolled off the couch today and hit a toy. He immediately started screaming so I picked him up. He cried for what seemed like forever! He know has a large quarter sized raised bump on his head. Right after the fall he got really sleepy and took a nap. I monitored him while he was sleeping and he seemed normal as far as breathing. He did though take an abnormally long nap. I called his doctors office they said to watch for vomiting and dilated pupils. Should I be worried about the size of the bump on his head and his sleeping?
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Based on your information, your son seems to have suffered mild head injury with scalp hematoma (resulting in bump). At present, there is no need to worry regarding the bump or sleepiness. Follow the advice as you received from the doctor's office.  Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
