Hi, Thanks for query to My HCM virtual Clinic.
And welcome to HCM services,as the services are rightly for people like you.

I studied all details of your query.

I understood your health concerns about Treatment of the lump behind he head of your baby-
Treatment-
As the location of the lump since birth is not given its very difficult to comment on the treatment as I am unable to assess the cause of the head lump on its back.
From the possibilities for such a growing lump, your daughter seems to have Dermoid Cyst which is a congenital lump and is of benign nature mostly.
Any other cause for this needs to be ruled which your doctor would take care of,as he would have first hand information,to which I don't have any access.
In this background I would advise you to Urgently consult and have a Second Opinion from your Surgeon,who would do CT Scan or Skull Xray to fix the probable cause of this tumour from the other causes which need to be ruled out in context to examination findings from your Surgeon.




Hope this reply would help you in resolving this complex query and anxiety with it.
I would appreciate if you hit thanks and write excellent review comments to help needy visiting patients at HCM.

Welcome for any further query in this regards.
Good Day!!
