What Causes Red Lumps At The Back Of Head?

My son who is 22 yrs old has red bumps on the back of his head, halfway down. He first thought it was from sweat, or mosquitos . I wondered if his hat & hard hat was irritating it. One bump got really big. There doesn t seem to be any whiteheads. What could this be? Michele
