Hi I m male 22 I m in very good shape I work out regulary I seem to be in fine health havnt been sick in a very long time I try to eat non GMO food whenever possible. Now all that siad here s my question I seem to have a lump on the back of my head behind my ear a couple inches back from the ear to be exact, I have hair thining in just that area nowhere else on my head the rest of the hair on my head is thick and full but that area is noticably thinned out, that area seems to itch quite a bit as well, I have dandruff but it s not reall bad as long as I wash my hair often it seems to stay pretty dandruff free. Now I told you all that cause I m just wondering do you have any idea of whatever this lump is and what is causing the hair thinning in this area as far as I know that s one of those hair areas that s not suppose to thin like that especially considering the rest my hair is fine full and very thick please get back to me about this and thank you

HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts and data of your query,You seem to have a complex problem of
a-Lump of Sebaceous Cyst-as you have dandruff accompanied,indicating blocked hairfollicle from excess secreted sebum.thinned out hair in the area is the result of the compressed hairfollicle with loss of hair in that lumpy area.
The cause of this itchy head with dandruff could be the GMO food which you are using.I would suggest to stop GMO food and see if this dandruff goes after or regresses after the Organic food use.
In the above scenario, you need to be very cautious and take the needful treatments for the varied unknown health issues you may have.
Hope this reply would help you to resolve your sever anxiety.
