Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Treatment -
In my opinion your lump on back of neck -is due to lymphadenitis due to scalp infection or infestation and needs treatment By ER doctor urgtly with antibiotics / NSAIDs tabs.
YOur other problem is ringworm -which needs ER doctor advise-as you have bad post-aural lymphadenitis causing headache, which may be due to the neck infection also.
So you need to take treatment under cover of a ER doctor or Surgeon and don't self medicate,as your case has become complicated.
So act fast and get ER Doctors and or/ Surgeons consultation and intervention URGTLy.
If you dont want to remove as you are afraid of its pain, then
Show to ER surgeon if it grows and worries more.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
Welcome for any more query in this regard to HCM.
Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advise.
Have a Good Day.
