Small boney swelling in head behind ear

2020-07-21 17:57:24
Hi, In the right side of my head, just beside the line between head and ear, and behind ear, i just found a boney swelling. Not sure if it is a lump. It is hard, beneath the skin and painless. It is small, you can feel only if you touch it. Not sure what it is. Is it serious? Any guidance will be appreciated. If i need to consult a doctor, what kind of specialization will treat this. Thanks in advance.
