A. that is the caput formation please do not press at manually as it may harm babies normal procedure to come back to the original have regular follow up with your doctor mostly the caput formed during delivery e gets reduced by itself slowly

A. You need to wait later if it's the same way , I feel It's better to show your kid to doctor and check with your doctor and follow their advise. That would be one of the best and safest option for your baby as of now.
