Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Back Of The Head

My fiance has a lump on the back left side of his head. Size of a quarter, soft, and sensitive. It is painful. He is complaining of feeling like his eyes are popping out and his head hurts. Just showed up this morning. And I m starting to get worried.

Hi,
It seems that he might be having folliculitis giving this problem.
there might be having some local infection on scalp like fungal infection, dandruff or ingrown hair follicle infection.
Go for one antibiotic, anti-inflammatory medicine course for 3-5 days.
Take regular head bath and keep local part clean.
Ok and take care.
