What Could The Red And Soft Lump At The Back Of Scalp Of An Infant Be?
Hi! My baby suddenly developed a soft lump at the back part of her scalp. It's reddish in color that looks like a mosquito bite but about half inch diameter. 1st came out this morning and then about 6 hours after another lump came out again about 2 inches from the first. What could this be? Thanks.
