Draining bump on scalp
About three years ago I noticed a small pea-sized bump on the top right side of my scalp. It has been there without any change, until about 2 months ago. It started to get bigger, now to be the size of a nickel). The other night it started to drain puss & blood. Three days later intermittantly it is still draining. Could this be something serious & do I need to see a doc? |

Only he can physically examine this and tell you beyond the shadow of a doubt what this is and what, if any, treatment is needed for it.
Please make an appointment. |
