Bumps in back of neck that don't hurt or itch but are clearly not normal!

[PeterK718]

I have 3 bumps in the back of my head/bottom of my hairline they feel about the size of a dime. Kind of look like acne bumps. They are light pink/red. They do not hurt, do not itch, and have been there for almost 2 months (That I have noticed atleast). Out of nowhere, one got inflamed and hurt for a day or two, but has returned back to its normal size. the rest remain the same. What can this be? Thanks so much in advance!

Generally topical clindamycin should do, and should one of these break out a culture and sensitivity test to identify potential organism could be attempted.
Best wishes.

So what should I do? They dont hurt or anything, but refuse to leave, I am currently treating with topical clindamyclin foam, but feel like they're too big/deep even though no hurting or itching for that to work. My derm seemed to shrug it off. =/

Absolutely, but then you may just have a folliculitis only.

I thought of that, but I am a white male, and it is extremely rare in white males.

I am a caucasian male wtih acne prone skin, I get short haircuts with a shave machine there often, but never recall getting anything like this. I am concerned because they just sit there. I have seen a dermatologist but she just seemed to shrug it off. Not helpful. Thanks again!
