What Do Lumps On The Forehead Indicate?

My boyfriend has recently had lumps forming on his head. First at the base of his head in the back and now on top in the front near his hairline. They are alarmingly lumpy and tender to the touch. He has experienced more headaches of late and some dizziness at times when standing up from a sitting position. The lumps on the back of the head showed up a couple of months ago and have diminished in size. The ones on the front hairline just arrived and are quite large and are in a cluster of 5-6 lumps. Should we be alarmed?
