Re: Ridge on top of forehead???

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

I am sorry about your local helmet not fitting at all. I hope the

new one works well. As for the ridge, my daughter is on a DOC band

and has also developed a ridge in the middle of her forehead.

According to her orthotist, the ridge is common and will go away

eventually.

Hi Tracey,

That is hard to say, I have seen other members mention ridges that

eventually go away. My son never deloped anything like that though.

I would ask your neuro.

Willow has those too and I was assured by our GOOD ped and by our

cranial facial surgeon that this was normal. I've not seen it on

alot of kids, but they both assured me it was ok. I would still

have Grace looked at. It might not be the same.

,

I would suggest the same as the others. Question the nuero treating

her. Hopefully, it is a normal ridge. Good Luck
