What do I do if my child has a bicycle accident?

As a parent it's really important that you recognize the dangers of any kind of fall from a bike. So the best thing to do as a parent if your child should fall off the bike and hit their head and if they weren't wearing a helmet, you take them in. You can't be too safe. It's very important that you recognize how vulnerable the head is. So any kind of head injury, there doesn't have to be blood, there doesn't have to be a cut, there could be a head injury that you don't know about. So take your child in and have them checked out. If a child falls off and hurts their arm, watch it. If the child is complaining a lot about pain, take them in. But anytime your child falls from a bicycle it's a fall no different from falling off a wall, falling off their bed, falling off the chair. It's a fall and needs to be taken seriously.
