A tense bulging fontanel is a sign of increased intracranial pressure. It is characterized by a bulging of the soft spot on the top of an infant's head, which is usually soft and slightly sunken. It can be accompanied by a tense feeling when touched. As intracranial pressure increases, the fontanel bulges more and becomes more tense. This can be a sign of a serious medical condition and should be evaluated by a doctor.
