Suggest Treatment For Painful Lump On Head
Hi Doc! My son is now two weeks old and has a soft swollen lump on his head, I noticed it a few days ago and have been observing him to see if it hurts or anything but it doesn t seem to bcz even if I touch it he doesn t react. But I am still concerned. Should I be worried?

Hi,
The treatment at this age could be of surgical nature though a soft positioning devise may be tried on the beginning. It's good that you have already taken an appointment. Methodical management by an expert with careful follow up would help the baby.
Thank you. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
