Pea-Sized Lump Near Eyebrow in 1-Year-Old: What to Do

A hard, pea-sized lump near a 1-year-old’s eyebrow—especially appearing after a fall—is not normal and requires prompt medical evaluation.

A healthcare professional will perform a physical exam, review the fall history, and may order imaging (ultrasound, CT) to assess the lump’s nature and location. Based on findings, they’ll recommend appropriate treatment.

Seek immediate care if the lump is accompanied by: persistent pain, swelling, warmth, or behavior changes. Do not delay—early evaluation ensures your child’s well-being.
