Suggest Treatment For Non-itchy Lumps On The Scalp

I have lumps on my scalp, not itchy, that started Saturday and getting worse and my gland is swollen and I feel lumps there only on my left side. i don t think it s lice. I did get some kind of bug bite on my scalp in August or September, not sure if that could be related. I am going to try to get an appointment with a dermatologist or do you think I should seek an Urgent Care clinic?

Hello Dear. It might be either lice or bug bite. Enlarged glands suggest some source of infection. Kindly consult a dermatologist who will give you antibiotics and local application cream. Its nothing like an urgency. Do not worry.

Hope i have answered your question. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. I ll be glad to help you.
All the best
With warm regards
