What is the treatment for a lump in the forehead?
Patient: Doc, my daughter fell off from BBQ in the park, stand on the grill but wasnt stable so she shoot down to the ground and bump her head; bruises in her forehead and lump; i have put ice after 5 mins of the accident. should I worry? How to get rid of her bump on her head? Thanks. Doctor: hi.did she have any loss of consciousness, changes in mentation and vomiting when she hit her head? if there's none, observation may be done. if there is, a cranial ct-scan might be of help to further evaluate her condition. the swelling/inflammation is normal and will eventually subside after 2-3days time.hope this helps.good day!!~dr.kaye
