Bump on left side of head

2026-08-08 02:46:58
I have a bump on my head since last 4 years. It is painless. If I touch it I feel it moving under skin and just below the skin. It is a size of a marble. What is it and how can I treat it? Although it is painless, while sleeping on that side or during haircut its irritating.
