Hi welcome to healthcareMagic Forum
the above signs and symptoms suggestive of a black mole on the back of the head.. No treatment is required until it is disturbing you....If the mole increase in size , discharge from it, or any other changes then you need to excise it... for further details you can consult a dermatologist...
