Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Bump on the head may be due to lipoma or boil or sebecious cyst or ingrown hair or exostoses or basal cell carcinoma etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Please consult your surgeon he will examine and treat you accordingly.
