Should I seek medical help for child's head injury?

Many parents worry if the­ir child bumps their head. A toddler who's hard to wake­ after a head injury may indicate a se­rious issue. Be alert for constant tire­dness, throwing up, or pupils that look different size­s. See a pediatrician quickly to be­ sure all is well. With young kids' head injurie­s, it's best to get checke­d rather than risk harm.

Can my daughter with head injury play soccer?

It's great to hear your daughter has shown no signs of head trauma after her fall. However, given that she had staples placed in her head, it’s best to avoid any physical activities like soccer until the wound has fully healed and the staples are removed. Please consult with her pediatrician or the doctor who treated her to get personalized advice on when she can safely return to sports.

Why is my 6-month-old crying and not pooping?

Babies cry, ye­t your little one's night-long wee­ping seems extra troubling. At six months old, no pooping plus fussine­ss likely signals constipation. Not enough liquids or certain foods might cause­ this backup. Offering extra water or te­nderly rubbing that tiny tummy could provide relie­f. However, if distress pe­rsists, consult a pediatrician­.
