I have a painful knot on the front of my skull. When I bend over it hurts. I can barely stand to brush my hair. I also noticed that I have another knot right above the top of my left ear. There is redness that has spread from the knot right above my hairline down to my eyebrow. There is swelling as well. I am 48, 5'10, and weigh 135. I am going thru menopause.
