Backside of head hit on hard surface
Today, My 7 months old baby fell on bed and his backside of head hit on the bed's hard surface. Although he is acting normal and taking feedings normally and I don't see any lump on his head but still I am worried if everything is ok.

If he is playing and behaving normally, no problem. Look for vomiting, bleeding or change in behaviour like excessive crying or sleepiness till a couple of days which indicate brain injury. Best to visit a pediatrician for check up to confirm. Online consultation does not help

Hi. As the baby is just 7month old and his scalp would be very soft, better to consult his pediatrician once.
He can examine him completely and then follow his advice.
