A Hard Lump Is Growing On My Head And My Memory Is Becoming Short Since The Lump Started
I have a friend that concerned me about a hard lump growing on his head that he said isn t painful, but keeps growing in size and its been there for the past year. What could this be? He also mentioned he feels like his memory is becoming short since the lump started?

Hi,
This is most likely to be a sebaceous cyst. This is not a serious condition. The cyst may continue to grow in which case it can be removed by minor surgery.
The memory changes will be coincidental and not related to the lump.
