My son had this bump on his head that look like it might have had fulid in it. Its was pretty small about the size of a pimple I popped it to get the clear looking. Fluid out but the top part of the bump came off and it started bleeding so I left it alone thinking maybe it was a mole or something I never noticed b4. Later I checked on it and when I moved the scab liquid stared comming out so I pressed on it again and this hard white thing came out and now there is a little hole in the center of where the bump was. What is this?
It could be due to Sebaceous cyst. It is not uncommon, and can happen when the sweat gland under the skin gets blocked. Ideally it should be removed completely by a Doctor, if it is big, growing fast , become painful or due to cosmetic cause. As it is not completely removed, you are still seeing a hole in the center. Cyst may develop again later on. At present, there is no need for any treatment. if it recurs, you can go to the Doctor. Take care. Dr H Hamdani
HI Thank for asking to HCM This could be sebaceous cyst, any skin lesion demands the clinical examination without this it may not be cent per cent right whatever we said it here, it is just based on whatever you described, more over many important information were not given here most of the time by most of the patients like in your case the age is missing, since how long the lesion is there not given (Inadequate history) any thing, so it is my advise to see the dermatologist for final confirmation have nice day

Hi Welcome to Health Care Magic It could be due to Sebaceous cyst. It is not uncommon, and can happen when the sweat gland under the skin gets blocked.
