Question pitbulls head

i have a 14 week old blue female and in the last week or so she got a golf ball sized knot on the back of her skull this is my first pit so if this is normal let me know it feels like part of her head and it doesn't seem to hurt her when i touch it i believe it may just be a skull thing but thats why im here to see what you think????
ok i will add a pic tonight my wife has the cam but i might have exaggerated with the golf ball it is more like a 1 in hump....?

If it is hard and feels attached I would have it looked at asap.
If it is soft and moves with the skin I would still get it looked at but would worry less.
Does she rough house with another dog? Could she have been whacked with something?

These are all just speculations- without a photo all I can say is "see your vet".
Have you checked with your breeder?

Agreed. It may be a lipoma or something a bit more serious. Let the vet check.
