Big Bump On Head, Increasing In Size, Having Headache. How To Cure?

My friend has a bump in his head the diameter of a golfball. It has been increasing in size the last 12 hours and there is a small red bump that resembles a pimple at te center of the large bump. He has a headache and has had one for the last 24 hours. He hasn't bumped his head but we had intercourse and I have been on micozanole cream for the last 4 days for a yeast infection

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
A bump on the head with a pimple at the center is most likely an infective condition. The headache might be because of bacterial infection. Yeast will not cause anything like that which increases in size over 12 hours.
I suggest he consults a doctor and takes antibiotic medication with pain relievers which might be given for treatment. He must report fever or dizziness if felt.

He will get well in few days. It has nothing to do with sexual intercourse or yeast infection.

Hope this helps.
