The general thinking is - if it's painful, chances are it's not sinister.

When I found a painful lump, I had it syringed by GP and the results came back it was an infected sebaceous gland (what ever one of those is).

The lump I had was tender if pressed and was a cyst, no redness. Anyway a bump to help you with your bumping! Hope it is all OK .
