See Your Doctor Now: With an unwitnessed fall, a head injury is always cause for concern. The potential for serious injury is significant following head trauma in an infant and symptoms may be subtle to absent in this age group. Injuries can include: skull fractures, bleeding within skull or brain, & more. An examination is needed before any reassurances or further instructions can be given. See your doctot NOW.
