What do lumps on hairline indicate?
Patient: My daughter is 17 years old and has lumps on the lower part of her head, at hairline, they do not hurt her and they have been there for appx 2 weeks. I took her to a derm. and he said that they are lymph nodes and that if they do not go away in 2-3 weeks see a general surgeon?? I made an appt with a family Dr. for a 2nd opinion, but was curios what kind of info I can find on my own while we wait until next week to see new Dr. Doctor: not to worry much as this is benign condition like sebaceous cyst / dermoid cyst or as you mentioned, lymph nodes!if really worries you can go for an FNAC test for confirmation and detection of the exact pathology there!all the best!
