Suggest Remedy For Bumps On Head With Headache

My daughter fell and hit her head on a rock 2 weeks ago and she still has a bump on her head. She has not been sick or dazed but says she gets headaches a lot, especially later in the day. Should I be concerned. The bump is on the front of her head above her temple.

Hello dear,
I can understand your concern about your daughter. Your daughter apparently had a mild head injury,from the clinical perspective as her head injury was not associated with loss of consciousness.Having a bump after head injury is very common and not a cause of worry(even if it is on the front of the head above temple).It normally gets resolved in a few days.Having occasional headache in the evening ,should not be a cause of worry if it is not accompanied with vomiting or altered senses.If it gets uneasy,mild analgesics can be given under a physician's guidance.I hope this reply helps you.
