My 18 month old son has a lump on the right side of his head just above the ear about 2" in length and 1" wide. The lump is raise ever so slightly; only about 1 centimeter. The lump feels hard like bone. It is not at all soft like a tissue tumor would be. He is very normal in every other way. Any ideas what this could be? Is it safe to have a CT done?

I took my 2 year old daughter to the doctor yesterday, for symptoms of cough and runny nose that she has had since the end of October. There the Dr. noticed that all lymph nodes are swollen and the left is more than the right. The Dr. did blood test that will not return for possibly 2 weeks. Can you tell me what could be found with the blood test?

Question Category : Lumps
My three day old nephew has an abdominal mass (possibly a pulmonary sequestered tumor versus adrenal mass). On CT and MRI he was found to have "Enlarged Lymphnodes". Is this secondary to the mass, is it lymphoma? Is there any correlation between any type of mass and development of lymphoma? We've gotten no answers yet from the hospital docs.

My 11 month old son seems to have a lump inside his back on the right side of the spine. It's barely noticeable, and doesn't feel like a marble or anything. It's about the diameter of a half dollar, but doesn't feel like anything different than the rest of his back. It just is a little more convex there. He's had regular pediatric care during and after pregnancy. I just noticed it today. Is this something I should be worried about? He's due for his 1 yr checkup in 5 weeks, is this too long to wait to get it checked?
