Guest guest Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Hi! My son has been in his starband for about a month now. The other day I noticed that he has bumps on his head right above his ears. The bump is right where his helmet ends and his ears begin. Has anyone else had this problem??? Is his helmet too tight? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 It sounds like swollen lymphnodes, which is pretty common. They should go away after he graduates from the band, but definitely check with your ortho to be sure. It's kind of like wearing socks with tight elastic all day, when you take them off, you have an indentation in your skin. There are lymphnodes behind the ears and they can swell from the constant pressure of the band, but the swelling goes away after the band comes up.
