Suggest Remedy For Sore Lump On The Back
My one year old son has a small lump on his back, and it started off looking like a skin tag or a mole, then it grew and it developed a white head, but it doesn t have pus or anything in it (we tried squeezing it) and it doesn t seem to discomfort him at all, but its really red, and its hard and we don t know what to do about it

Hi... by what you say, I feel that it could be a dermoid cyst.
The white head which you are seeing on the top could be a secondary infection.
I suggest you upload an image of the lesion in this website and get back to us.
