It could actually be a boil, but if you are worried, then see your doctor.
It depends what caused the lump.
It is not possible to tell how serious the painful lump is without getting it looked at by a doctor. The best solution is to schedule an appointment with a medical professional.
birthday
a lump on my head that itches
the lump on top of the belugas head is called a melon no joke!it is a lot of blubber to help keep them warm
No.That will make it hurt more.
The lump should definitely be checked out particularly since it has been there that long. It could be cancerous.
For a lump on the back of your head you could see a dermatologist (skin doctor) or oncologist (cancer specialist), or possibly an endocrinologist (if the lump has a hormonal cause). For a lump in the back of your head, you could see a neurologist.A general practitioner / family doctor will be able to give you a "top to toe" check up and see if there's anything you need to be referred for.
There are several things which this could be. A few possibilities are a tight muscle, a cyst, or even a tumor. If the lump doesn't go away, you should have it checked by your doctor.
A round quarter size bump on top of a child's head could indicate a cyst. Cysts are not painful and are common in children in the head region.
That is a disease. Forgot which one. You can search it on the web, and I think there is a cure for it.
simple! a huge painful ZIT!i know this may seem funny, but they can b very painful and red! useNeutrogena deep clensing oil free wash on top of your head every day for about a month, and your problem shuld be sollved. in the meantime, try not to wear alot of hats or oily things on your head. this causes MORE iratation and more redness!
These symptoms could be related to an allergic reaction. Try using a gentle shampoo, such as an oatmeal based product. The lump could be an infected hair follicle, which presents as a pimple.
