Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. First be reassured that your kid is normal. I will suggest you danger signs of head injury -1. Vomiting continuously2. Seizures3. Watery of bloody discharge from ears and nose4. Unconsciousness5. Altered sensorial or behavior. If none of them are present, I don't think you should worry about his trivial head injury. In this case the bleeding has stopped, and your son is normal and active. So do not worry. If he has nose bleeding again with 48-72 hours, get him examined by a physician. Regards -
