Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Head
8 or so months ago I lightly hit the back of my head dead center. It was a light hit but was still beyond excruciating. The pain went away after several minutes. Since then I have noticed a hard boney lump in that spot. Every few days it seems to grow a little bigger and gets painful to the touch but then does not bother me at all the next day. what is it and what should I do?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having formation of some hematoma due to hit producing lump on that area.
Now hematoma is reduced and encapsulated giving rise small lump.
Nothing to worry, go for ice pack application for few days.
Gradually it will be absorbed.
Ok and take care.
