Brain Tumors - Swelling


Expert: Claes-Gustaf Nordquist, M.D. - 6/14/2009

Question
Just 2 weeks by now, my brother just got bumped and a huge lump appeared, we immediately put ice on it and it got smaller and we thought it was gone. Now, I just discovered that he still has a small lump/swelling in his head at the same spot when he was bumped 2 weeks ago. What should I do aside going to the doctor? We're actually keeping it a secret to our parents. Pls?

Answer
Kevin, this is probably a rest of a bleeding there. It may be necessary to let a surgeon check it. But so far it probably is not. But if it gets worse in any way it definitely is! However this has NOTHING to do with brain tumors so this is outside my area of expertise here.
