I've noticed a oval line type not on my toddlers head on the right side behind her ear but up toward the middle the head on the side what could it be?

Knot on toddler head: Most knots on children's head, if they are discreet, mobile, not red or hurt on touching, are benign lymph nodes which get enlarged due to minor trauma, inflammation or skin infection of scalp region like dandruff or scalp ring worm etc. A short visit to your pediatrician or to a minute clinic would solve this "mystery" in no time!
