Child Having Pea Sized Lump On Skull Base. Should I Seek Medical Attention?
My 13 month old son has a small pea sized lump on the left side at the base of his skull. It doesn't appear to cause him any discomfort, but aside from maybe a very slight fever for an hour or so yesterday, and a slight lack of appetite the last few days, there are no other symptoms and he appears his normal self. He did have his MMR Jab 10 days ago... Should I be concerned about this lump or is it likely to be a swollen gland? When should I seek medical attention? Thank you.
