Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, pain at chin can area in a 4 year old child after trauma can be due to muscle spasm, mandibular fracture, skin Hematoma. Apply pain reliever cream over the Chin area. Also, and x-ray of the mandibular region should be done to rule out fracture. It is necessary to rule out fracture because if there is fractured then the child will have difficulty in eating food. I advise you to do X Ray of mandibular region. an examination by doctor should also be done. Give soft diet to child. take care.
