Sorry to ask the obvious, but just in case!.!.!.!.!.is there a similar lump on the right side!? Probably not!.!.!.!.but there is a bony protuberance there and muscles attach to it and it could be tender if the muscle is tight!.
Let's assume it is different from the right!. You could have a swollen gland which could indicate a low grade infection somewhere on the left side!.!.!.!.sinus issues, cold, etc!. Or, you could have a hair follicle infected or plugged!. Have someone look at it closely!. If they can see a pimple or blemish or some redness in the skin there, it is probably just a little blemish!. Apply some heat to bring it to a head!.
If it is deeper than that, suspect a swollen gland and try to figure out why or check with your MD!.
IF YOU ALSO HAVE ONE UNDER YOUR ARMPIT on the same side of the body IT IS MORE LIKELY ALSO A SWOLLEN GLAND!. IF IT HAS BEEN THERE A YEAR YOUR BODY IS PROBABLY FIGHTING AN INFECTION!. DO you have a sinus or tooth issue on that side!? YOU NEED TO ADDRESS THIS WITH YOUR MD!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it's hard and growing, you may have a cyst!. Only a doctor or nurse practitioner should remove it for you, so see one as soon as you can!. I don't think the soft lump has anything to do with it!.
If you want, you can look at it by using a hand mirror to reflect the back of your head into your bathroom mirror!. Just make sure you have enough light!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you have a black head that has gotten infected back there, especially if your ears are close to the side of your head and the skin is folded!. My husband gets them once in awhile, you have to squeeze it and youll get nasty stuff out of it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
rush to the doctor!.
