Hi,

I would suggest that you seek immediate medical consult for the bumps. They may likely be fatty deposits. One differential is a lipoma. Lipoma refers to fatty deposits that may also involve the scalp.The bumps if asymptomatic may best be left alone. If pain, enlargement, discolorations and discharge are noted then this may need medical and surgical intervention.

Refrain from unnecessarily touching the bumps. Cuts and irritation on the skin may lead to infections and this may only aggravate the condition.
