A. please do not worry I completely understand your concern however it is nothing to worry about for my baby its stayed for almost 6 months which is completely normal as per the pediatrician in fact it reached to a level where it was bloated and we were only advised to apply coconut oil on it, it is a sign that your child has accepted the vaccination of BCG.
