HI
Well come to HCM
This could be nonspecific type of swelling may not be due to any disease do not try to squeeze this else this may cause serious trauma due to tender skin of child instead just wait for few days if this does not improved then clinical examination would be necessary, some investigation may be advisable, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
