Suggest Treatment For A Lumps On The Base Of The Skull

Hello there and thank for your time to read this. I m personally not sure how to ask a doctor about my situation. At the base of my skull I have lumps which have grown larger of the past few years. These lumps have be causing serious migraines which are unbearable. The pain will start from there location and travel around my head to my eyes. Sometimes during the migraines parts of my arm, face or leg will jerk and twitch. I also have other lumps as well one on my left forearm and left buttock. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello. I have been through your question and understand your concern.

I am not sure lumps can cause migraine, though you might need the appropriate treatment for migraine. Since you have different lumps you should consider getting seen by a dermatologist to rule out any genetic syndrome like neurofibromatosis.

Hope this helps.
