What Causes A Bump On The Forehead With A Black Center In A Child?
My 16 week old son has a small bump on his forehead with a black center, He's had it for almost 1 month, I thought it a insect bite at first but it's not healing. Any ideas of what it could be? It doesn't appear to bother him, but since its not going away I worry. The center of the bump seems sunken in.

Is it compressible?
From the above history it seems that he have Heamangioma.Which is vascular anomaoly.It is benign disease.
Advise.
Refer to pedaitric surgeon for further evaulation and management.
