Hi, thanks for writing to Chat Doctor. Well, if I were your family physician and had you presented this painful hard knot on the head, I would clarify some important facts about such nodules as follows: 1. There are few possibilities in this case and all of them are benign or inflammatory therefore not to worry but must be investigated properly!possibilities are: small boil, hair-follicle infection, resolving abscess, neurofibroma, pilomatricoma, varieties of infections and small abscess; myogenic granuloma or hemangioma-like pathology; etc.2. The disease needs to be confirmed and before any empirical therapy!therefore you need to get to your doctor for a simple examination and relevant tests if necessary! ... Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
