It’s always frightening when your child is hurt but there is nothing that terrifies a parent more than child head injuries.

Once you become aware that your child has hurt his head, do not allow him to move around until you know what has happened. If the injury just appears to be a minor scratch or surface injury, apply the necessary first aid and call your doctor to see if any follow up is necessary.

If your child appears to be disoriented or unconscious, call 911 immediately. Do not allow the child to move around in case there is a spinal injury.

Taking simple precautions can give your child a better chance when dealing with a head injury.
