My 8 yr old son has a red bump above his ear. It was very small like an insect bite but it has grown larger over the last few weeks. It does not appear to be an infected hair follicle. It looks like it has a watery substance inside and it does not itch or hurt. Wondering what it is and if his pediatrician needs to see him?
Hi.it could be an insect bite allergy getting secondarily infected, and I suggest you consult your pediatrician for this. Your son might require topical and oral antibiotics, probably. Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically. Hope my answer was helpful for you and if so rate it.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome.
