1 month old baby has a red bump on head under her hair. Can you please tell me what is it? Should I need to worry about it?

Are you sure it was not there at birth ? Please consult a Paediatrician for any further clarification. It doesn't seem to be birth injury.

Hi dear, yes these marks are generally naevus n are found commonly in children.

With passing age, they do disappear n don't leave any mark or so.

Do not worry n stay relaxed while keeping an eye on the mark if at all it grows.

If it is since birth, then it can be a birth mark or naevus
