What Causes Severe Pain At The Back Of Head Of Toddler?
My toddler was jumping around when she grabbed the back of her head and started screaming. I picked her up and everytime I do she screams! I have given her pain relief but it dosent seem to be working. She does not have a fever or anything else...although she has had a head cold for a week. She has just been laying on the couch for the entire day because she does not want to move cause of pain. Any clues to what might be the cause?

Hi,
She might be fall and got injury. Apply ice bag. Take syrup Tylenol for pain. If it seems severe like lethargy, vomiting, or any unusual symptom, talk to a pediatrician.
