Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. The lump you are mentioning is a mostly nasal dermoid cysts or , nasal encephaloceles, or nasal gliomas . You need to get a USG and CT head done after consulting a pediatric surgeon or pediatric neurosurgeon. Its nothing to be alarmed of. But only after the proper evaluation we can decide the gravity.
