Question
Why does a one-year-old baby develop hard lumps on their head?
Answer
Hard lumps on a one-year-old baby’s head may be due to an infection, commonly caused by bacteria, viruses, or mycoplasma. If the baby has recurrent fevers, it is advisable to undergo detailed infection checks, including blood tests, C-reactive protein, PCT, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. These tests help determine the type of infection and allow for appropriate treatment. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you health!
