One foot height usually doesn't cause injury inside the skull . Observe baby for irritability and vomiting as these are signs of internal injury . Let a pediatrician examine baby as soon as possible . CT scan is a better modality than MRI for skull fracture . But a 6 month old would require anaesthesia for the scan . So wait and watch and be guided by a doctor before deciding on a scan .

Health Tips

Don't give pain killers on your own without doctor's advice , as pain killers mask the signs and symptoms of head injury .
