Suggest Treatment For Head Trauma After Injury In An Infant

My 18 months old daughter had a fall and upper central part of her head got swollen. She cried severely for few minutes and then slept peacefully in the night. Her swelling became normal after two days. Now after 6 days of the fall I feel her falling during walking more often then before. At times after falling she cries a little and waits for someone to pick her up. Very worried. Please advise.

Good noon ma'm..

Kindly take her to a good neurosurgeon immediately, she requires an urgent CT scan of the head. There is a chance of bleeding inside the brain, so please do not delay.

If you are able to get a neurosurgeon immediately, atleast take her to a neurologist.
