What is the reason for the small lump on the baby's chest?

Patient's question:

The baby is still very small. A month ago, after the baby's bath, when I was applying talcum powder, the baby was stretching lazily and accidentally touched a soft lump the size of a peanut on the baby's chest. However, in normal sitting or standing positions, the lump could not be felt. Yesterday, after the bath, the lump was found to be growing, but it could not be felt when a different position was adopted.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Based on the symptoms mentioned above, this child is considered to have a lipoma or a cyst. Do not worry, but the problem is not too serious. Suggestions: According to the above situation, it is recommended to take the child to a regular hospital for examination to see what it is. Do not be afraid just because it is a lipoma, as that type of tumor does not cause any problems. Additionally, there is a possibility of a cyst.
