enlarged lymph node on DD's head

DD has had this since birth and her ped wasn't too worried about it-it wasn't attached to her skull and she said it would go away on it's own. But, now it's gotten bigger and doesn't move around-so she has to have an u/s on it. Anyone have any experience with this?

  • Em has one on her neck and I lost it when I found it a couple of years ago. They told me the same thing to just watch it. It has never grown at all and it does move.  they never had us have it tested and seemed to be the same as your pedi - not concerned.

  • I have no idea but I hope it's just hanging out and everything is fine.   *hugs*

    Brady has one like this also. It gets a tiny bit bigger when he has a cold, but other than that it just hangs out. Doc isn't concerned.

  • I don't know if this is what you are talking about, but SD had a cyst on the inside of her wrist since she was born. It stayed the same size for quite a while but recently began to grow. They removed it under general anethesia a couple months ago. It was completely harmless.
