Large hard lump on the base of her skull...

[~Trish~]

Well, I'm glad you've found a Dr you are happy with, it makes a huge difference! Glad to here she isn't too concerned. It sounds similar to my DD the other week. We had a lump in her neck checked at the GP, were then sent for an U/S then a chest x-ray and it all came back fine. She just has a freaky vein that pops out when she cries lol! I reckon it'll be a cool party trick one day .

Hope the u/s comes back fine and I hope you're feeling a bit more at ease

Hi there,

Just wondering if you care to let us know about the ultrasound findings? I know this post was awhile ago, but my wife and I have the same exact thing you described, even down to how I noticed it in the bathtub when his hair was lying flat. We had our dr take a look, but she said she wasn't concerned and didn't tell us to go anywhere for follow-up. I've done the same exact thing as you (felt my head / neck area) to see if it's normal and my son's is more pronounced. He's also been pulling at his ears and kind of swatting at the area of the lump. The dr did say to 'keep an eye on it', but I've pretty much been obsessing about it since I saw it, worried that it's causing him pain or a sign of something serious that dr. missed. Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks
