Hi all. I have a tender spot on the back of my head. It feels like a bruise when i touch it. It is giving me tremendous head pain. Anyone else ever had this.

If its on your head you really should see GP asap. We can't give medical advice but might be anything from a cyst to a blocked gland. Either way or anyway it needs looking at properly before the bank holiday.

Have you ever had neck Problems?

I’d see your doctor to get x-rays .....neck pain can be referred to the back of the head

Don’t just leave it and hope for the best !

Hi, Jaqi1 - I have a similar thing, I think. I mostly just feel it when I wash my hair - a couple of tender spots on my scalp. It's not too bad and I never thought to ask the doctor about it but it is odd. It sounds like yours is more severe, though.
