Can you treat a nosebleed? Do you know how to splint a broken bone? Whether it's an emergency or not, these guides help you deal with common childhood mishaps and illnesses.
Any child who might have a concussion should be checked out by their doctor or at the emergency room (ER). But it's OK to allow the child to fall asleep. In fact, especially for young kids, it can be hard to keep them awake.
After any hit to the head, though, a child who falls asleep and can't be wakened needs emergency medical care. Get help right away if that happens.
