Suggest Treatment For Painful Bump On Back Of Head
slightly painful knot on the lower part of my skull on the back of my head.(right about where my hairline is) about an inch and a half from my left ear. This "bump" comes and goes..I have had it before, exact same spot. But it goes away after a week or so...maybe less. I'm 33, weigh 150 pounds, and 5' 4. Female. It also does hurt slight. Almost feels better when I apply pressure, but when I do that I can feel it in my forehead and eyes.
