Child. Large, Green Lump On Head With Liquid In It. No Pain, No Bite Mark. Opinion?

My baby brother who is around 1 and a half years old has a large lump on his head. The lump is green color and when I touch it I feel like there's liquid in it. It shouldn't be a bug bite since there is not bite mark nor does he show any pain when I touch it. He has had it for about 2 weeks. The bump started out small and now it's larger.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

I can understand your concern for your brother. It is very difficult for me to hazard a guess for the problem described by you without examining the lump. However as you say that it has been there for 2 weeks and is not troubling your brother then you can wait and observe. As you mention that it has increased in size it would be appropriate for a doctor to examine your brother and guide you accordingly.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing you brother all the best.

Regards,
