A member asked:

My niece is almost 2 months old and has a large hard bump above her buttocks but below her spine. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe a birth defect: It may be a birth defect that needs evaluation, so the parents most likely have already taken the baby to the specialists. If not, a pediatrician is the doctor to start with, who can then refer to specialists as needed.
