My stepson is 12 and he recently showed me 3 lumps on the back of his head, they r bout the size of a dime, he says they hurt when there is pressure on them. They arent red or they dont have a head on them. They r quite hard and they dont move when u push them. Hes not sure how long hes had them, he just discovered them  a few days before showing them to me.
Hi, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns. Treatment -In my opinion your stepson, seems to have bruises with cellulitis which have not yet developed in to boils. They appear to be there for quiet a long time and are caused by the infection of the bruises during combing, with a healed up partially due to repeated combing trauma. Avoid trauma for a week, and they would vanish by natural healing process. Show to ER surgeon if it grows and worries more. So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to Chat Doctor and be comfortable to resolve your health issues. Welcome for any more query in this regard to Chat Doctor. Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advice. Have a Good Day. Chat Doctor. N.
