Bumps On Head That Give Headaches. What Is The Pus?

My friend has a number of bumps through out his head that gives him headaches . It hurts him to lay down on them, and they have pus coming out. At times these bumps may bleed . He has had them surgically removed and now they are back some in the same places some in different places. What might this be, and what can he do to help it.

I went through the history you have posted.
It seems from the history that your friend is having recurrent bumps which are filled with pus on the head.
These symptoms indicate recurrent furuncles or boils. The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Do consult your doctor for examination and prescription of drugs.
Do write back to me for further questions.
