What Is The Painful Lump On My Head Along With Dizziness And Fever?

Hi, my name is Jayme Edwards. I have been experiencing dizziness- which also comes with extreme weakness, a small fever and confusion- Other than dizziness I have been having trouble remembering things. I get sharp, short, painfull, pains in my head. About four weeks ago I found a small bump on my skull on the back/top of my skull. And I have been getting more pains in my head since, and I get them right by the bump, but in my head. Please get back to me, this scares me. YYYY@YYYY Please email me if this ends up costing me money and you think thise might be severe, Thanks.

HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts and data of your query,you Seem to have infected painful lump on back of Skull.
This is causing fever/confusion/dizziness etc over last few weeks or so.
But don't worry its not Cancer-Prima Facie,though it needs further clinical and lab/ radiological investigations from Surgeon , who would rule out the various other causes of it.
So unless Surgeon gives his final opinion,DON'T worry at all.
It could be treated after confirming the diagnosis,by medicines and by surgery if need be.
So RELAX and act fast.

Hope this would help you to resolve your sever anxiety.
Welcome for any further query in this regard

Will appreciate writing your feedback review comments,to help the needy patients like you at HCM.
