Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My Son who is 13 yrs old informed us the top of his head hurts when he touches it. I was rubbing the area that he complained about and he stated he was tender to the touch. Also, he stated when he runs sometimes head sometimes begin hurt. Thank you for your feedback,
Could have been an injury or even possibly an infected hair follicle in the region requiring a medical examination. I honestly cannot say without visually examining it. But please do not massage it or try and pop it. A warm compress at least 3 times a day should help for now.
Best wishes.
