Hi! I have a Bump on the Back of my Head (It's near my Neck area) Should I be Worried?

My Mum thinks it might be Brain Cancer, and I am Worried about that. Or do you Think It's just a Normal Bump? (Like a Cryst) Confused

Hi did you bump your head? Is it a lump or a bump? Do you have health anxiety?

youreclapped · 05/01/2018 22:05

Well, It's more of a Lump, and yes I do have Anxiety.

It's probably a sebaceous cyst. They are very common on the scalp.

OK. Thank you.

Are you sure it's not your occipital protuberance?

Go to your gp to get it checked. I did last week. Mines a cyst.

It could be a swollen occipital lymph gland. I had one last year - hard and sore to touch. Dr said it was from an inflammation of the ear canal.

Fuck, your mum sounds lovely. I bet it's a cyst, or possibly a gland? Go gp for reassurance, hope you're OK!
