Will there be any problem after falling on the back of the head

The head is undoubtedly one of the most important parts of the human body. Traditionally, it is believed that the head determines the intellectual development of the human body. So in life, if you accidentally fall and injure the back of your head, will there be any serious consequences? If you accidentally fall, what examinations should you do afterwards? Generally speaking, during the aftermath of an injury, observe closely to see if the victim has a heavy pain in the head. Go to the hospital for relevant examinations as soon as possible.

Generally, if you fall and hit your head and cause severe concussion or intracranial hemorrhage, the symptoms will appear quickly, at the latest within 24 hours, so you should go to the hospital as soon as possible if you have symptoms. Even if you fall on your head, don't always suspect a concussion. A concussion is characterized by a period of loss of consciousness and awareness. If the baby remains conscious, there will be no problem. If the baby vomits, it may be caused by fright or a temporary brain concussion. Generally, it will be better after vomiting two or three times, which is different from a concussion.

What should I do if my baby falls on his head?

1. Did you cry after falling?

If your baby starts crying after falling, there is little chance of brain injury. If the baby does not cry after falling, and becomes unconscious or comatose, you should go to the hospital.

2. Is there any change in consciousness half an hour after the fall?

Observe whether the baby's consciousness changes within half an hour after the fall. If the baby does not have a headache or vomiting and is conscious after the fall, it means that the collision was minor and there is no problem.

3. Are there any adverse reactions?

If your baby shows symptoms such as incoordination of limb movements, inability to wake up from sleep, vomiting, etc., he should be taken to the hospital for treatment immediately.

Now everyone has learned about the dangerous period when a baby's head is injured when he falls. When the child is very young, parents should always be by his or her side, because the child is too young and should be avoided from bumps and collisions. Of course, there are always times when parents don’t pay attention, so don’t panic, first master the above methods to make judgments, and then observe further.
