Is A Lump On The Bridge Of The Nose Normal?

My 16weeks old daughter has had a lump on the bridge of her nose since she was born! At first it was thought it was trauma from birth but that s not the case as its still there! She has been to the doctors and they said it hasn t got a pulse so it is fine! Its towards her left eye and is getting bigger as she grows,it has a clear blue vein across it but doesn t seem to cause her distress! But it does get bigger and pulsate when she crys and she has always sounded very nasalley,wich doctors said was normal! I m so worried its something serious,she is due back at the doctors this week! Do you know what it could be?

So, her lump is getting bigger, causes no symptom but nasal tones, pulsate only when in emotion and has visible blue veins within it...that's all I could understand from your description.

Welcome to our forum and I'm really happy to discuss such relatively unusual clinical presentation here!

Well, nothing to worry in this case and this is possibly very difficult to rebuld surgically that's why your doctors said just to wait and watch.

In fact that is not going to help at all!
Because this could be a dermoid;
Because this could be an ethmoidal polyp;
Because this could be a hemangioma...!
But never malignant!

Medicines cannot treat this; therefore get it to an ENT specialist for a rhinoscopical examination and to discuss possible treatment options.
