Lump on back of head what is it?

Question:

I have a small lump (5p) size on the back of my head just above where my hairline ends. Its tender to the touch and is annoying me. I have no idea what this could be whatsoever. I had a ear infection last week which has pretty much cleared up but the infection was on the other side so I doubt its related to that. The lump is inside and quite hard. I do suffer psariasis on my scalp and have a few spots near this lump but I have NEVER ever had this before and it does`nt feel like psariasis. Sorry I cant spell it! Do I need to see the doctor or will it just go. I have had it for around 2 days now.

Answers:
You need to get it checked but with such a recent onset it is not going to anything to worry about, probably just a small cyst or a boil which are resolved easily with 5 mins of face to face medical assessment.

BEST PERSON TO ADVICE YOU WOULD BE YOUR G.P.
It may be a enlarged lymphnode, a sebaceous cyst, a lipoma or just a boil.
