Cephalohematoma presents as a large bump on the baby’s head.
The term comes from two words, “cephalo” (meaning skull) and “hematoma” (meaning blood outside of the blood vessels). Together, they mean that blood has pooled on top of the skull.
While this birth injury appears frightening, it is typically harmless and usually disappears within a few weeks or a few months.
These 4 birth injuries are visible immediately after delivery. Here’s what new parents should watch for.
