Lumps on Head


Lumps on head is one of the very annoying, irritating and uncomfortable medical conditions. Apart from drawing your complete attention and concern, it prevents you from looking normal as well. You find difficulty in combing your hair as the comb bristles can hurt the lumps and cause pain. You find tough to maintain hygiene as well. You cannot wash your hair and massage your scalp with oil. In a nutshell, the lumps on head makes you feel and look pathetic and pitiable. The ideal way to improve the condition of your head and life is to treat the lumps as soon as possible.

Causes of Lumps on Head

The most common causes of hard bumps on head is the disorder of the skin called dermatitis. It is defined as the inflammation of the skin. Dermatitis causes the formation of skin rash, which are itchy and red. The rashes may or may not have distinct margins. In some severe cases of dermatitis, pus-filled blisters are formed, which often ooze out fluid. Such blisters dry up and crust over with time. Pimples or acne is a possible reason behind the lump on head and neck. It forms when the hair follicles get clogged with oils, dirt, dust and dead cell debris, and this deposit gets infected with micro-organisms.

Sebaceous cyst is another prominent cause of bumps on head. It is a closed sac that develops under the skin and is filled with an oily or cheese-like material. Sebaceous cyst mostly arise from swollen hair follicles. Physical injury may trigger the onset of such a cyst formation. Surgical treatment is commonly required to get rid of it.

Hives, which is a raised itchy area of skin, may appear on the head and neck. It is one of the results of skin allergy. The medical condition which involves inflammation or infection of one or more hair follicles is known as folliculitis. It may be a possible cause of lumps on head. The part of your scalp which is not covered by hair may suffer from cancer, which itself appears as a lump. There are still many other causes of bumps on head. They include chickenpox, shingles, etc.

Treatment for Lumps on Head

There are several home remedies that you can try to cure bumps on head and neck before visiting a doctor. To reduce itching and inflammation, apply lavender oil on the lumps. Consult an aromatherapist to learn about the quantity for usage. You may use tea tree, rosemary and neem oil for the same purpose. They are antibacterial, soothing and healing in nature. You may apply jojoba oil to rehydrate the skin on your head. It resembles the natural sebum of your skin and accelerates the process of healing of the sore lumps on head.

There are various nonprescription remedies available for treating bumps on head. They are mainly in the form of shampoos which contain ketoconazole, ciclopirox, tar, selenium sulfide, salicylic acid and zinc pyrithione. Follow the instructions given on its pack.

Also, follow a healthy diet and drink plenty of water to speed up the process of treatment.

I contacted him and told him my problem he told me that I should not worry that my sister cancer will be cure, he told me that there is a medicine that he is going to give me that I will cook it and give it to my sister to drink for one week, so I ask how can I receive the cure that I am in USA, he told me That I will pay for the delivery service. The courier service can transport it to me so he told me the amount I will pay, so my dad paid for the delivery fee. two days later I receive the cure from the courier service so I used it as the herbal man instructed me to, before the week complete my sister cancer was healed and it was like a dream to me not knowing that it was physical I and my family were very happy about the miracle of Doctor so my dad wanted to pay him 5 million us dollars the herbal man did not accept the offer from my dad, but I don't know why he didn't accept the offer, he only say that I should tell the world about him and his miracle he perform so am now here to tell the world about him if you or your relative is having any kind of disease that you can't get from the hospital please contact dr.sakuraspellalter@gmail.com or whats app him +2348110114739  you can follow him up on Instagram @herbalist_sakura for the cure, he will help you out with the problem.
