What Causes Bump On Neck And Head In A Baby?
My baby fell off a chair while trying to climb on to the counter. I did not see him fall, but he has a pretty good size bump on the back of his neck and a smaller one on his head. Should I be concerned? is there anything I can watch out for to indicate serious injury? I know that neck injuries can be serious...

Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I understand your concerns but don't worry. If her activity, breathing pattern and pulse in normal, then it's unlikely to be serious injury. If she develops any breathing problems, tachycardia, bleeds, vomiting episodes, consciousness disturbances then visit an ER for complete examination and evaluation.
Hopefully it will be of help.
Take care
