Suggest Treatment For Soft Lump At The Right Of The Head

My partner has discovered a relatively soft lump at the rear right of his head, which is giving him sharp pains, he's had it for about 1 week now, before he was getting headaches. I've felt the lump, and it feels as though it has liquid inside, it does move slightly when pushed. Approximately half an inch in diameter, and raised??
