Lump On Back Of Head Reappeared, Sore To Touch, Squishy. Having Speech Problems. What Is It?
Hi about 4 months ago i found a lump at the back of my head, i told my doctor he said ita likely nothing and if still there next year hell recheck. However it disappeared after a little while and has now reappear today, a little sore to the touch and abit squishy. About the size of a ping pong ball, im quite worried as ive been having speech problems lately even though i know the word. I told my doctor and he says its nothing. Should i be worried and beg for a second opinion?
Hello, Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum. The swelling on the back of head and reappear and now sore to touch as may be , 1 Dermoid cyst , 2 Sebaceous cyst Can be confirmed by physical examination by another doctor and get his opinion ( 2nd). Cause of concern is that this time reoccurs , painful, if your speech problem is related to this tumor then consult at once and get a M R I according to your consultant . If sebaceous or dermoid get its surgery ( excision). Hope I have answered your question. If further any question, I will help. Good luck. Dr. HET
