Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump At The Base Of The Skull
What is the painful lump at the base of my skull? It is tender to the touch and I have been getting sharp headache pains. I thought maybe I had a sinus infection a few weeks ago and I took a zpack. Symptoms have increased since then and now the painful lump.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it could be lymph node most of the time it may not need any treatment but better to keep this under the observation for any changes and if this goes on changing become painful then it may needs some testing but this is seldom happens hope this information helps.
