General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

With the history it looks to be an organised hematoma of the scalp. However, the final diagnosis could be done only by a clinical examination and a MRI if need be. Therefore, I would advise you to to take an appointment from a general surgeon for your father and get him assessed.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your father's lump. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
