Injury in forhead

2018-05-12 07:09:52
My 18 months old son toppled on the floor and got hurt on his forehead. We applied ice initially on his forehead. There was not vomiting or abnormality in my son. There was no pain as such but swelling, though reduced, is still observed  on this forehead even after 4 days. Is there anything to be worried?
