What Causes A Knot Between The Eyes Extending To Forehead In A 7 Month Old?

My grandson has a noticiably bump/knot between his eyes and continues up his forehead to about the middle of his forehead. He is only 7 months old, but he has been sick lot since he was about 2 and half years old. Is this something to be worried about?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello,

Recent swelling above bridge of the nose extending to forehead suggests possibility of sinus infection. In that case you need to consult ENT specialist. If the swelling is since birth then it may suggest cyst or other congenital problem which also needs consultation with a doctor and further investigations.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khan Shoeb Mohammad Sher Mohammad
