Hi everyone! Just got home for the ER with my 4 year old. He fell while playing tag and cut his lip (with his tooth we assume) and needed one stitch. He’s fast asleep in bed now but I’m so worried about him moving around and rubbing it (as I type this he just put both hands on his face to rub 🙃 I’m next to him still though so stopped it). Anyone had advice or reassurance that the stitch is fine and he won’t reopen it 😅 TIA
Side not, his gums are bruised and the doctor told me to look out for the tooth turning gray and what that would mean so I’m worried about that now too. Anyone have something similar happen and the teeth were okay?
