Pediatric Scalp Bumps: Quick Guide for Parents

Scalp bumps in kids are often caused by minor issues like folliculitis, cysts, or insect bites, but some (like boils) may need medical care.

Watch for red flags: fever, swelling, pus, or rapid growth. These need urgent attention.

Home care: use warm compresses, gentle shampoo, and keep the scalp clean. Don’t scratch or squeeze.

If bumps worsen or don’t improve in 2–3 days, see a doctor.
