What Is The Round Oval Bump On My Left Cheek?
I have a round oval bump on my left cheek. It is immovable, hard, painful to touch. It s diameter is around 4cm. I had the exact same type of bump on the side of my head a month ago and it went away after a week. What is this bump and what is the cause?

Hi,
Small, minor abscesses usually go away on their own within a few weeks. But if you have a fever or if your abscess gets larger, feels very painful, or is surrounded by skin that’s warm or red, see your healthcare provider right away.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
