This is a forehead hematoma due to fall or injury
This is very common in active toddlers
Apply ice pack wrapped in a towel and give painkillers in recommended doses if he has pain
Caution: -Look for danger signs like drowsiness, vomiting or change in consciousness— if present should be evaluated immediately
