My 6 month old daughter fell off the bed and hit the top and back of her head on the edges of a shelf. There is a slightly raised red bump in the back and a scape like red mark on top of her head. She cried for about 20 minutes and then acted normally laughing and crawling. We observed her for a while and then she went to sleep because it was her regular nap time. She is sleeping now but I wonder, should we take her to the ER?
Is she is behaving normally and there is no loss of consciousness, or vomiting then ER is not necessary? Jus apply some ice pack on the area and observe for a day... if any new symptoms arise then you can take her to the ER.
