Red Spot After Hours Without DOC Band

[Guest guest]

I took my son for his first weekly adjustment today and the CT tecnician notices

a red spot on the base of his cranium, right close to the right ear. It's over a

soft and " moving " bump which seems to be a lymph node. The technician adjusted

the band, but recommended that we remove it and let the inflamation go away

overnight. She said that she'd rather have Sam sleep without the band one night

than have him be without it for several days if his skin breaks. Does anyone

have any experience with this type of red spots? Is it a problem to leave the

band off for 24 hours? Any tips to avoid red spots would be very appreciated.

Otherwise this first adjustment visit was perfect. It seems that my little one

had grown a lot and if he keeps this pace we might be done earlier than we

expected...

Thanks so much for your help!
