Hard lump under chin? Posted: 01-22-08 05:20am


Hi! I was wondering if anyone has had this before. My 20 month old toddler has a large hard lump under his chin on the right hand side. I took him straight to the doctor which wants me to have an ultrasound done (tomorrow). Does anyone have any idea what it could be? He hasn't been sick (and still isn't) or had any infections. Also, the lump does not appear to cause discomfort when touched. A bit worried. Thanks.
