What Causes A Lump On The Scalp After Head Injury?
Question: Daughter aged 4 banged the back of her head on the corner of the wall about 4 weeks ago after falling off the settee, we put ice on after half an hour she was fine just a bump no other symptoms. I noticed tonight washing her hair she still has a pea sized lump is this normal?
Brief Answer:
No need to worry.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Since all that time passed and no other symptoms related to head injury were present, a small lump is not a cause of concern.
It should resolve by itself with time.
Hope this helps. Feel free to ask further.
Kind Regards.
