What Causes Bumps In Skull?

I was brushing my 4 year old daughter s hair, running my fingers through it. I noticed that on top of her skull, it is not smooth but rather feels as if there is a large bump that is hard like it s her actual skull. Is this normal bone growth? She hasn t hit her head, it doesn t hurt, just feels like her skull.

HI
Well come to HCM
If the swelling is asymptomatic and no clinical sign and symptoms are there then this is nothing to worry because this could be normal one but this need to be watched for any changes if you find increased size becomes tender then this need to be investigated hope this helps, Thank
