Fatty bump on the back of my head Posted: 06-17-08 11:48am
Okay so the fatty lump on the back of my
has not gone away but has not got any
bigger. It dosen't hurt at all and I don't
know it is there unless I touch it. Now
people say it can be a swollen lymph node
but is soft and I can move it back and
forth and when I tuck my chin into my neck
it is almost gone. If I take the hair
around it and pull it tight it goes away.
So does anyone have any Ideas? I have no
insurance I am sure I can go to the ER but
I don't want to be in debt for the rest of
my life unless I have to.
Now I have a broken wisdom tooth which on
my right side gives me so many problem
like a headache on my right side. I know
wisdom teeth can effect lots of things but
could it do this? I am scared I might have
cancer or a tumor I freak over everything
I found this lump on the 16th. I am
stuffed up and my ears feel if they are
draining but I am not sure if that has
anything to do with it. I feel no other
swollen lymph nodes anywhere. Should I
worry and go to the ER or should I wait it
out to see what happends and if any other
things pop up? Could i t be cancer?

Hi and welsome to eHealth. You do have
some problems that need addresing. You
need to have the wisdom tooth that is
broken taken out. As for this mysterious
lump, please see a physican. Not sure
where you are, but there are health
departments here in the US. It is based on
your income, mostly free services. Explain
to them your concerns and if htey can not
help you, maybe can lead you to some help.
FInding lumps are scarry.....its better to
be safe than sorry. Don't allow this to go
on any longer! Take better care of
yourself!
