      My 10-month-old nephew fell headfirst on the wood floor yesterday. He was sitting towards the edge of the bed (about 27 inches) he lost his balance and fell directly on his forehead. He cried for about 5-10 minutes and a small amount of blood is seen from one of his nostrils but dried up quickly after we wiped it away with a tissue.

      His mom said he is fine. the bright red bump on his forehead went down after 20 minutes of icing. We watched him sleep throughout the night and woke him up every 2 hours to check on him. The next morning he woke up without any bruising or bump.

      He has been sleeping and eating normally since yesterday. but I am still very worried. Should I tell his parents to take him to doctor?

        @srijaI suggest you to better schedule an appointment with a doctor as you said you have seen little blood from one of her nostrils. Never neglect when it is concerned to babies.
