POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month3 months agoA. It sounds like you’re asking about a “calf” in the neck of your 2-month-old baby. Could you please clarify what you mean by “calf”? Are you referring to:
A swelling or lump in the neck? A skin tag or cyst? Or something else like a muscle tightness or knot?
If it’s a swelling or lump in the neck, common causes in infants include swollen lymph nodes (often from minor infections), cysts, or other benign conditions.
Important: Any lump or swelling in a baby’s neck should be evaluated by a pediatrician to know the exact cause and treatment. Some may need simple monitoring, others may require medication or sometimes minor procedures.
If you can describe the lump/swelling more—like size, firmness, if it’s painful, red, or changing— I can provide more helpful guidance.
Please do consult your pediatrician for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Meanwhile, avoid pressing or massaging the area.
