My dd who is 5 has something similar on her head. It showed up when she was 6 months old. (she was born at 29 weeks) Her Doc said it would go away with puberty, so IDK. Have you had an u/s done on it?
Hi!
The lump and vomiting with blood may not be interlinked. Smoking, alcohol use, gastritis, acidity, tumors of stomach and food pipe, bleeding gastric ulcer, cancer of stomach, erosion of lining of food pipe, bleeding veins at esophageal (food pipe) sphincters etc all cause vomiting of blood. This can be fresh red if coming from a place above the stomach. It can be brown or coffee colored if coming from the stomach. Tumors/cancers of the oral cavity or mouth, pyorrhea or pus in gums and Vitamin C deficiency can cause bleeding from mouth, which if ingested can result in vomiting.
A lump on the scalp can be a part of the skull structure. Sometimes the skull bones have an exaggerated curvature or protuberance without any cause. Otherwise it can be an osteoma which is a bone tumor. If you hit your head somewhere long back, then this could be a localized tight hematoma. It can also be a localized collection of nerve and fibrous tissue called neurofibroma or it can be a localized contusion or a lipoma. Rarely the lump is a cancer, but any lump that has a change in texture, size, color etc or which becomes painful all of a sudden should be immediately shown to a doctor. Take care!
