Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Small Child, Head Injury, Bleeding From Nose, Acting Normal. Chances Of Skull Fracture?
My 2 year old daughter hit the back of her head on the coffee table. It was a very hard fall. She immediately screamed and cried for about 5 mins, then calmed down. She then had a few drops of blood come out of her nose but stopped shortly after. She was quiet for about 15 minutes, then she resumed playing with full energy. She also drank a bottle of milk before bed as usual and seemed perfectly normal when she went to bed. Should I be more concerned? Does the nosebleed indicate a skull fracture?
injury on the back of the head and bleeding from the nose indicates a deeper injury.it would be better if you take her to a neurologist and get a ct scan done to be sure about everything.take care
