What Causes Burning And Itching In A Lump On The Back Of The Head?
Hi,I have a lump on the back of my head, about 3 months and more now. It burns, I get headaches, and it itches if touched. I am sometimes nauseas. I have taken medication 2 times for lymph nodes being enlarged (doctors assumption). He says he cannot feel the lump I have but just gave me them any ways. They did not help in any way.I am not sure what it is, please help me.

Hello,
The symptoms are probably related to an infection.
As you are complaining of itching the infection may be bacterial or fungal.
A proper anti-fungal cream should be applied to treat the symptoms.
You can also use Cetirizine to relieve the itching.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
