Pediatrician 's  Response
Is it paining or oozing? Did he hurt himself against the bath-tub edge? I guess it could be anything ... you should show him to a doctor in person. Alternatively, you might want to send me the question with his photos, but that might cost you, so it is up to you.

In the meantime, why don't you apply some antibacterial ointment and see if the bump resolves?
