my daughter has a lump on her scalp.  I think it is a sebaceus cyst however they are usually painless arent they.  this one is very painful.  touching it sends pains shooting up the back of her head.  it doesnt look red, this week we noticed the hair has fallen out around it.  any thoughts
Hi, From history it seems that she might be having infected sebaceous cyst or having formation of abscess from some infection on scalp. Consult your doctor and get examined. After proper diagnosis, line of treatment can be decided. Ok and take care.
