Question 6

how can i treat a head bump that has lasted for a month now since i hit my forehead?

Accepted Answer

: The head bump would go down by itself, and not much would change it now. You could try warm compress. The bump is because of bleed, because lots of blood vessels on the head, and the body has deployed cells to the area to remodel but it would take some time for you to see the changes.

Question 7

my baby is 1 month and two weeks. i noticed she has a bump in the middle of her forehead, like a small hill. she hasn't any head injuries, what is it?

Accepted Answer

May be suture: The main suture line for most kids forms a T with the ear to ear line in back of the forehead and the middle one from the soft spot along the center toward the back.Some have a prominent suture line from the front of the soft spot running down between the eyes. A ridge in the forehead like a boat keel can be a transient feature in some kids.Confirm this with your doc.They usually grow out of it.

Question 8

what are the bumps on my face on forehead from?

Many things.: These can be scars from old injuries.  They can also be from things like blackheads and pimples from oil accumulation which did not rupture and were never fully removed.  They may just be tha way your face/forhead develops with age and whatever tension you went through in life.

Question 9

what could this bump on my forehead be if i didn''t have an injury?'

Accepted Answer

Hard to lnow: Likely it is something quite benign. I have seen lipomas (fatty tumors), sebaceous cysts, osteomas (benign bony tumors). These are easily distinguished with physical exam.  See your doc. I cannot rule out other problems that may need more urgent care.
