First of all, its "i have a painful lump on the back of my head '''which''' keeps coming back" The lump may be a boil. If it is, try pressing a hot towel to it, using anti-acne medications or soaps,etc, or a doctor could look at it and do a draining or give you medication. If its not a boil, try a anti fungal device shuch a Nizoral shampoo. Or it may be a tumor, in wich case your screwed.

∙ 7y agoGo to the doctor, that could be serious! It could just be a benign tumor, or it could be a "pump knot" from an injury. Or it could be much worse than either of those. Even if it is the less serious ones, they might still need medical intervention. Benign tumors can be removed if necessary, such as when they are in bad locations or cause pain, while even a knock on the head could become complicated.

You may have an abcess, not a boil. Since an abcess can go deep, and since it bleeds, it is my advice to see a doctor. The doc may prescribe antibiotics if infection is present, which it most likely is. Don't wait to go to the doctor -- you may have to have surgery if this is not taken care of soon.
