Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 31 year old female. When I was 18 months old, I fell approximately 8 feet onto concrete and hit the right side of my forehead. To date, I sill have a lump where I hit my head. Recently, I ve become very aware of the lump and when I run my hand over it I feel something below the skin. I also have aching in the area that radiates to the back of my head on the same side. I m wondering if I should get this checked out.
Regarding your concern, I would explain that this lump could be a scull bone remodelation due to local trauma or inflammation. I don't think that it is anything serious, as you got it since childhood. Anyway, I would recommend performing a brain CT scan in order to examine better your skull.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
