Suggest Medication For Circular Patch And Bump On Scalp
something bit me on my scalp over 30 days ago now and it left a soft bump on my scalp..what could this be and how long will it take to go away...it does not hurt, but feels soft to touch like a sac of fluid is in it....when i put a perm on my hair it caused a circular patch of hair to fall out in that spot...

Hi.
As per your case history of bump on scalp it maybe either a cyst or lipoma.
My treatment advice is-
1. Don't worry, as it is not associated with pain.
2. The thing about cystic lesions is that no cream will help to heal them. Only way to get rid of them is excison.
3. So consult a dermato-surgeon for excison of the lesion.
Thanks.
