if your child is active,playfull ,feeds well and swelling is not increasing then there should not be anything to worry nd you can just wait nd watch but if there is any of the danger signs like poor feeding,altered behaviour ,persistent vomiting,increasing size of swelling then urgently see a doctor.
Next Steps
wait nd watch nd if need arises then see a pediatrician
