Hi,

Thank you for your query.

It appears that every thing is normal with your son. In case you find that he is unusally drowsy or irritable or vomits or is off feeds then you need to take him for a full clinical evaluation.

The swelling that you describe shall be there for some time and will gradually subside. You should not worry about it.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your son all the best.

Regards,

Welcome to HealthCare Magic

Hope you are doing good. It doesn't seems your 5 month baby have some major trauma. But still as there is swelling at the eyebrow you should take him to your pediatrician because he is just 5 months old for physical examination to avoid any risk of other internal injuries.

I wish have answered your query. Feel free to ask if you have any query. Wish your kid good health. Regards
