[|Human|] my baby is 10 weeks old and has had a swelling on the right side of his head near his far since birth. I have been told by numerous people it is a haematoma but i thought it should have gone by now. It started to go down but now it seems to have got bigger again. It is very soft and squishy to touch. Wot could it be?
[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concern. The swelling that you have described might be presence of a cyst. Cysts are fluid filled cavities which are lined by layer of cells. However, there are many other lesions and tumors that can look and feel the way you have described. I would advise you not to ignore the swelling, and you should get it checked by a pediatrician or an oral & maxillofacial surgeon reading its exact location, size, color, texture, consistency etc. Your son might need to go for biopsy and surgical excision of the lesion. I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. Take care. Best,
