My daughter (now 10 months) was born with one just in front of her left ear. At her scheduled visits to the local clinic, the doctor has always been too busy to remove it - at this stage, we’ll await the inevitable teenage demands for removal. Apparently it’s hereditary - her uncle and grandfather both have them. Damn those in-laws and their crappy genes;).
