Is The Hard Lump A Cause For Concern?

When changing my daughters diaper tonight I noticed that her mind punish was swollen on the left side. It was a hard lump, not red and it did not appear to cause her pain when I touched it. By the time I finished the diaper change, the hard lump (which was about 1 x 2 ) had disappeared. Should I be concerned?

Brief answer :
No need to worry

Detailed answer:
Hi, welcome to HCM.
You have noticed a lump of 1×2 cm which was not red and disappeared with 5 to 6 minutes. In my opinion, this lump was caused by tightened cloth or pressing of skin between clothes which disappeared as soon as the pressure was released.
I think that you need not worry about this.
I hope this has helped you. Take care.
