Hi my son who is 11.5 month old fell down from sofa. He got big round shape swelling on his left side forehead above his left eyes. I took him to doctor he said he is normal. No need to worry and asked to keep ice pack on his bruise. I'm worried swelling is still there. It's been 4th day.. will it affect him. I could see some changes in his behavior. I'm scared

The swelling will gradually go down. Is the child drowsy, irritable or vomiting. If yes, then consult the doctor immediately. He might cry because of pain. Ice application is the right way to bring down the swelling
