Suggest Treatment For Indentation On Forehead After Injury

My three year fell onto my almost 3 month old son this morning. He cried for a minute, but seemed fine, now this evening I noticed that his forehead is indented. I didn t realize she had fallen on his head. Should I take him to get checked out? He seems fine.

Hi...even though he is fine, a 3 month old's clinical signs may be late to appear due to expansile nature of head due to open anterior fontanelle. So I suggest you take him to the nearest emergency room and get him evaluated,.
