Suggest Remedy For A Lump On The Head
Hi, my name is Alesha, from Louisiana. I know this may sound like a question, that does not make any sense but I needed to know why there seems to be a hump growing on my head and for some reason I have an unusual head shape, and I looked up some things on the web, and found out about head deformities of an infant but not adults. Is this anything serious? Thank you all doctors.

hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a lipoma (a fatty deposit), a fibroma or a cyst (a sebaceous or a keratinous type). these lesions can occur anywhere in the body and have the tendency to recur. management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
