It depends on how hard or soft you have hitted your head
My daughter has a bump on the back right side of her head that is painful when touched what could it be?
Well, it could be many of things, but I would say it's just a pimple. If it doesn't go away you might want to get the bump checked out. Any bump that is sore should ALWAYS be looked at by a doctor. If it's a raised soft bump and you live in a area where there are ticks this could be possible and that's all the more reason you should see your doctor because of Lime Disease ticks can cause. It may be just a cyst that can be removed.
IS IT NORMAL FOR A BUMP TO BE ON THE LOWER BACK OF BABY'S HEAD?
It depends on what the bump is like. It's always best to have a doctor take a look. It's probably fine, but better safe than sorry you know. Its normal for there to be a bump there up until the child is almost a year old. The bump is the soft spot where the bones of the skull are not fused together yet so the baby's head can flex to oval during delivery. It will eventually fuse together and make one one solid bone structure. Until the child gets older, the soft spot will be an area of safety concern.

What is it called when there is a bump on the back of my one year olds head behind her right ear and is this normal?
It depends on where the lump is. My baby had two lumps on the bottom back of her head where the glands are back there and when I took her to the doctor he said that when the babies have cradle cap that the glands swell at the back of the head. It could also just be a little bump to the head. My two month old developed a squishy lump on the back of his head. I took him to the doctors and they weren't sure what it was. We had a CT scan and it proved to be similar to what baby's have when they are born. They said he probably bumped his head on something. I would call the doctor to check, but it's probably nothing.

That depends on how it got there, if the child hit his/her head and it's just a small bump with no headache or vision problems it is probably OK. You should check with your pediatrician anyway just in case it is a concussion.

The soft spots on a baby's head are called fontanelles. There are two of them, the larger one close to the front of the head, and a smaller one that closes soon after birth further back on the head.
What does uncircumcision look like?
Uncircumcised penises have skin that covers the head (glans) of the penis when it is soft. This skin, called the foreskin, can slide back off the head. The foreskin usually slides back when a man's penis becomes erect. If the head of the penis always shows, even when the man is soft and not erect, then he is circumcised. If the penis head is covered when he is soft, then he is uncircumcised.
Why has my sixteen year old daughter has a large soft spot at the top back part of her head?
Normally, as an infant, the soft-spot on the head is an opening between the skull plates that allows the skull to flex during birth. However, this normally closes up at 18 months old, so it is important to check with the doctor, as this could become an issue.
