== If the "bump" is not hard like bone - as if it is a part of your skull - but is like a small lump of jelly under your skin that you can move easily, just with a finger, it is known medically as a "sub-lemmal cyst". (Meaning "lump under the skin's layers"). Such cysts can be caused by the kind of bumps you can easily get when playing in hard wooden or metal structures such as the climbing frames in childrens' playgrounds. Or if, when running with a ball, and not looking out properly, you accidentally bang your head hard against something like, say, an unprotected Rugby football goal post. (These were very common years ago - nowadays they have protective padding on them to help prevent this kind of injury!) If it doesn't grow bigger over the years then it is likely to be non-dangerous and, as long as it does not look unsightly and it doesn't bother you, it can just be ignored. But even so it may be wise to have it removed carefully by a surgeon and have the cyst matter checked. Speaking from my own experience, it required only a tiny 1/2 inch incision and the tiny amount of pain was just from the injection they give you to numb the skin and from the healing wound afterwards, which is no worse than a bad scratch . The stitches were taken out after a week and there is no scar left at all - and I don't have to live with that silly lump any more! I have a similar lump on my head, but I have no idea how it got there. I looked in the mirror one day and it was there, and has been ever since. I had x-rays done, but the doctors didn't attempt to remove it. They said that it was a bruise of some sort from hitting my head on something. I think I will get it removed surgically as this is the only option i can think of. Yes, just wait about 10 days or so. ( I waited 10 years, but the bump is still there) There is a product called SUNBREEZE. Somewhat expensive but well worth the price. Buy it have it on hand and as soon as you hit yourself apply just a dab and you are almost likely not to bruise. Seriously just a little goes a long way. It is even digestable for stomach aches. Put a small dab in some hot water for some tea. Also apply for cramps and what not SUNBREEZE is such a wonderful product. Sunrider Products. When the bump is recently acquired, place a cold pack on top or over it. Make sure you remove the ice pack once you feel numbness . Cold compress minimizes the swelling of the injured part. after a day or two, you can apply warm compress to irrigate the injured part of dead blood.
