Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Last night My 3 yr old toddler had a fall and result in a big lump on his right side of his head- near his ear area. This morning he has a fever temp 38.5 degree celsus. Should I bring him to a hospital now ?
Hello, I have gone through your question and understand your concern. In my opinion it is better to take your child to hospital to get him examined, and take an x-ray of head. This will ensure there is no hairline fracture, and no other injuries that can potentially be dangerous. Furthermore, if the examination and x-ray is normal, you may give paracetamol or ibuprofen to your child for fever and pain.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
