A. due to pressure on one side of the head during sleeping there is flatness / abnormal shape on that side of the head. no treatment is required for flat head / bumpy head and you will see that by one year to twoc years of age the flat head will go away as soon as the child begins to sit and later walk. pillows willx not help much in this case so do not worry. the bones in the skull are elastic so to give space to the growing brain it takes different shapec and when the growth of the brain occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape
