Are Lumps On Forehead Normal Post Cranial Surgery?
My 6 year old nephew had cranial surgery for lamdoid synystosis in December and this morning he had a nosebleed and this afternoon a large lump developed on his forehead with no trauma occuring. Is it possible there is a connection between the surgery and the lump developing?

welcome to Health care magic.
1.Possibilits of the previous surgery can not be ruled out.
2.In case of any infection / inflammation to the post operative site with oedema may appears as lump.
3.I would recommend you to see the treating doctor / paediatrician as soon as possible both for the lump and nasal bleed.
4.In post operative case delay is not accepted - as it may complicate.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
