My son dropped our baby suculta today on his tummy fro about 2/3 ft up on our floor (not concrete) he instantly peed a lot and a tiny dip of blood came out his nose. He instantly started eating and walking around like normal. Should we be concerned?

Hello and Welcome. Yes, I would give him a 20-30 minute warm soak keeping him warm the whole time and then keep a very close eye on him for a week or so. Any changes for the bad I world get him into a good reptile vet.
My rule for kids holding my torts is they have to sit on the floor or my hand is under the tort while they are holding them.

Your tort seems to be ok since he's eating. I'd take him to a vet anyway.

Please do not pick up your tort or let anyone pick him up unless necessary.
