Have Lumps On Head. No Pain. How To Remove This?

I have two lumps on my head, one at the front of my scalp ~1cm diameter (middle of forehead , 1 inch into my hair) and the other at the back of my head (1/2cm diameter). No skin colour alterations, no pain, changes in size from day to day / morning to night but no pattern established. I have had them for about a year or two, the front one is bigger now than previously, the back one doesnt change much and i swear another one was forming but disappeared now. I tried sticking a pin in it (not advised i know) but nothing much happened. I was thinking i should use a syringe but didnt have one or maybe i should stop self treating myself with sharp tools... :) I have zero other health complaints and very active.

Hello,
Thanks for the query.

These lumps can be lipoma.

It is a collection of fat cells in a particular area.

It is harmless, you dont need to worry regarding this.

Please meet a dermatologist to confirm diagnosis.
