What Causes A Hard Skin Colored Bump On The Cheek Of A Child?
Hello, My daughter is 5...she s got a round hard, skin coloured bump on her cheek. It s not very small and it seems like it grew a little bit from what it was months ago. It doesn t have a white head or anything. I was hoping that it will go away on it s own or may be a puss will come out and make it disappear..I m so worried...What could it be??

Dear parent,
such things are quite common in children, Most probably it will subside on its own. See If she is trying to itch it. if it gets inflamed or starts spreading, or get discoloured. In any of these cases take her to a pediatrician or a ski specialist.
Otherwise keep applying moisturizer/ baby lotion etc.
