Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The lump may be a soft tissues cyst or an aneurysm of the underskin vessels. I don't think that there is a relationship between the lump and headaches. Tension type headaches, migraine, etc. may be the conditions that may cause headaches.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
