The baby is 6 months old. Is it normal to have two seams above the ears on both sides of the head?

Honey, the suture is usually closed when the baby is 3-4 months old. I don't know if you touched it wrong I suggest going to the hospital to see a doctor.

The size and closing time of fontanel and suture

Qianfontanel:

The anterior fontanel is a rhombic space formed by frontal bone and parietal bone, which is located in front of the head. The size at birth is about 1. 5-2 cm (the distance from the midpoint of the opposite side) increased slightly with the increase of head circumference in the first few months after birth, and gradually ossified and decreased after 6 months, generally at 1- 1. Close at the age of five.

Posterior fontanel: Located at the back of the head, the posterior fontanel is a triangular space formed by two parietal bones and occipital bones, some of which are closed or small at birth, usually 6-8 weeks after birth.

Fissure: Fissure is a gap between five skulls, which is slightly separated at birth and closed at 3-4 months.

Knowing the disease by touching the fontanel: The closure of fontanel and bone seam reflects the ossification process of skull. Late closure is common in rickets, hydrocephalus or dementia; Early closure is more common in microcephaly. If the anterior fontanel is full or convex, it is a manifestation of increased intracranial pressure and an important sign of infantile encephalitis and meningitis; If the front fontanel is sunken, it often means that the baby is dehydrated. When touching the baby's front fontanel, you can feel the jump, and even see the baby's fontanel jumping. This is because blood vessels pass under the scalp, which is a normal phenomenon. When touching the fontanel door or washing the child's hair, as long as the action is gentle, it will not bring any harm to the child.
