What Could It Be If Have A Bump On The Back Of Neck Which Is Squishy?

I have a dime size bump on the back on my neck. It hurt for about a week and it s red and white. Now the skin on top of it feels leathery and it s squishy. It s not something you can pop. It s soft ... what is it? What do I do with it or how do i get rid of it?

Hi,

It seems to be lipoma or epidermoid cyst. I would recommend you to consult a doctor and get it evaluated.
