lump on head

[satedtomatoes]

I've had a lump on the side of my head since January.It's sore and my hair as fallen out on that area.Been to the doctors who doesn't know what it is (no bump to the head prior).Help I don't want to lose ant more hair.

I'm not entirely sure why this is in housekeeping but..

Ask your GP to refer you to a dermatologist. There's not alot on the scalp so it's likely to be something skin related, a fungus maybe. Ask for a referal and see how it goes. I hope you get it sorted soon.

i think you should post this in general health. you might get a better response

sorry belle, xposted. i wasn't referring to your advice, it wasn't there before i typed.

It's alright.

sorry, new mumsnetter,didn't quite know what I was doing.Thanks for the advice anyway
