I have had a cyst like bump on my head for a long time. I recently, went to the doctor he referred me to a surgeon to have it removed and tested for cancer. I also, have a large one now in the crown of my head, What can you tell me about this?

I have lump like cyst on my head.  I went to the doctor, he said normally he would remove them but the size and shape were a concern to him.  He has me going now to a surgeon to have it removed and tested for cancer.  I since, have notice another one on the crown of my head but it is much larger.  What is all of this?  Can you help with any knowledge of this nature?

I have a large cyst like lump on top right of my head. And several smaller ones, one located at the crown of my head, and others on the lower right. I have had them for  at least 6 years and today the large one hurts and is very sensitive to the touch. What do you suggest I do? I also have been experiencing hair loss around where the bumps are.

I see alot of them in my profession. They are usually harmless and more of a nusience. Hopefully that is the case with you.
