Head Circumference

2018-11-19 15:25:39
Hello.. My son is 4 months old and has a head circumference of 44 cm. We got cranial ultrasound done and it shows that there is no problem. But doctor advised it is on 97th percentile and we need monitor till he is one year old.. Kindly advise if it is anything to be worried about.
