Weston Caput Succedaneum Attorney

Birth can be an extremely traumatic physical experience for mother and child. A common injury an infant might sustain is caput succedaneum, which is the swelling of a newborn’s scalp soon after delivery. The wound looks like a lump or bump on an infant’s head. This condition is usually caused by prolonged pressure from the dilated cervix or vaginal walls on the child’s scalp during the delivery process.
If your child was harmed as the result of medical malpractice, don’t hesitate to give our Weston caput succedaneum attorneys a call. Rash Mueller is dedicated to helping people seek justice on behalf of their children. Let us see what we can do for you.

Symptoms of Caput Succedaneum
The primary symptom of this condition is puffiness under the skin of the baby’s scalp. In this area, a child’s skin will be swollen and soft, and pressing on it can result in a dimple in the flesh. There may be some discoloration or bruising, but it shouldn’t be too extensive. Typically, the condition will resolve itself within a few days and doesn’t require treatment. However, because the bruising caused by caput succedaneum may break down into bilirubin, there is a heightened risk of an infant developing jaundice. Jaundice typically doesn’t post problems unless it goes untreated. If the condition is untreated, it could result in several medical issues, including brain damage and, in severe cases, death.

"I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, and “got my back” attitude."From the first phone conversation with Lori, to the first time meeting with David and Jeff, all the way through and to the conclusion of my case, I felt as if these people truly cared about what happened to me. They didn’t just see a potential “case”. They were upset with my situation. They wanted to help. Through the years that this whole process takes, I have gotten to know them a bit better, and they have gotten to know me. I now consider them less “my legal team”, and more a part of my extended family, whether they realize it, or like it, or not. I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, and “got my back” attitude. I hope you are never in a situation to need these folks, but if you ever are, I highly recommend talking to them and seeing if it’s a right fit for all.- Joel F.
