A member asked:
Does my little one need to go to the er if she just hit her head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluation.: Depends on the age and condition. If there was no loss of consciousness, onset of lethargy or headache, it is not necessary to go to the er. If within 3-4 hours there is a suspicion of change in condition, i would take her to the er.
