Hi my 17 months old son fell on floor and his head struck on edge of chair. Immediately I noticed a bump on his forehead and also there was a vertical blue line in the middle of bump. He cried for few minutes. After that he was busy with his toys. He did?t vomited or anything. Now after 4 days there is still swelling on that area but lesser than before and that area is soft. He did?t feel any pain on touching it. Is this swelling normal or I should go to doctor.

Hello, Thanks for the query. Since there has been no other problem after the fall like projectile vomiting or persistent pain etc, there is no reason to worry. The swelling will remain for a few days. It will slowly go away. Thanks.
