Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
just reading the thread someone started about a bump on the top of their head. my 9 year old just noticed one too and I was concerned because she doesn t remember hitting her head and I have no idea like the person in the original post, if its always been there or not. Is 9 too young for a possible lipoma?

thanks for sharing your concern!
there is nothing to worry about this; it is nothing but a sebaceous/dermoid cyst and well, could be a lipoma as you mentioned or even a hematoma!
for confirmation an FNAC test is useful in such cases1
