If it painful and bothersome to the baby it could be a abcess. But if its painless it could be any thing from a wart, hematoma,sebaceous cyst.. anything. You dont have to do anything just monitor it and dont handle it often. If it continues to grow after 6 months consult a pediatric surgeon... Lastly I dont think it is anything to worry of much.
