Suggest Remedy For Lump On Scalp

Hi, I am a 26 year old male. I have realized that I have some bumps on my scalp. They are mostly just above my temple. They are sore to the touch. My girlfriend does live in a basement so I am thinking maybe they are bug bites. We have seen a couple of house centipedes in her place. There is about 5 bumps. Some bigger than other. They almost feel like pimples but they are not. Also I have another painful area behind my ear. There is a pressure point behind the ear and the pain or bump is almost right in that area. This one is less of a pimple like bump and is under the skin. I would think it was an ear infection if it wasnt for the bump. I have had plenty of ear infections as well as strep throat and this pain is neither of those. I would recognize them. Please help I don t know whether to leave it or go see a professional.
