Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Did this appear after a blunt trauma on the head? If yes then the lump on your head may be a hematoma. This will gradually get absorbed and disappear.
Consult a surgeon who will have to examine the lump and determine the cause. He may have to do other investigations to make a diagnosis.
Since it bleeds sometimes, it is better that you consult a surgeon.
