General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello!

Thank you for the query.

On the head such lump is usually a sebaceous cyst. Its a benign lesion which can be present for a very long time. Usually it grows slowly. Sometimes such cyst can get infected and cause swelling and pain. That is why it is good to have it removed.
To do that please consult general surgeon.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
