[|Human|] My 7 year old son clashed heads with his friend at a school disco this evening. He has a golf ball size lump between his eyes and I am worried that he may have concussion or worse! I have put a cold pack on it and have given him paracetamol but should I be taking him to A&E to check it out?
[|AI|]  Hi I am Chat Doctor and I will help you with your problem I have gone through your question. It appears to be hematoma; collection of blood beneath the skin, as a result of the trauma. In this case it is necessary to elevate her for intracranial bleed. Clinical evaluation includes, 1) History of loss of consciousness after injury, 2) Vomiting, 3) Ear, Nose or Throat bleed, 4) History of Fits, 5) Swelling or bruising around the eyes (called as raccoon eyes) or behind the ears. If any of these symptoms is present, she needs CT Scan brain to rule out any pathology. If not, she can be managed conservatively with spy paracetamol 1TSF 8 hourly and icing the swelling. The swelling will disappears in a week or so. I hope my answer will help you. Do rate it, If you like it. Regards
