What Causes Bump On The Back Of The Head?

My one year old tripped and fell hitting her head in the driveway got a little bump and bruise which I iced right after but today I found two pea sized bumps on the back of her head near the right ear but not in same place as the bump from the fall that was on her forehead. The bumps feel Like hard peas and about that size any idea what this is I m worrying.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
What you are feeling are lymph nodes. these are normal. We all have them. In some of us they can be felt, in others not. they have nothing to do with your daughter's fall.
I find this answer helpful
