What Is The Cause Of A Lump?
My 17 month old son has a hard circular lump between his right eye and the bridge of his nose. We have been to our family doctor and he's not sure what it is. He said to come back in a week and if it's not improving he will refer us to a pediatrician. Any thoughts on what it could be? Is this common in children?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. I think it could be a blocked nasolacrimal duct. If it is so there will be continuous watering from that eye. I suggest you see a pediatric ophthalmologist for this. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
