I have a lump on the back of my head?

A random lump just showed up on my head and I have no idea what it could be. It's on the rounded part of my head about a hand from my right ear. It's about the size of a marble and it's hard, but you can move it around like you can with your knee caps. I can feel that it's there without touching it, but it hurts when I do touch it. Either way, it's a bother and it's kind of freaking me the crap out! Does anybody know what it might be?

    You have a "cyst" that may or may not need surgery .Discuss this with your doctor & see what he/she has to say.However,read up on the subject before hand because a lot of doctors like to GUESS!

    It could be many things, go to multiple doctors not just one. It can vary from cysts to parasites, there are parasites that replicate bruises on your head an can cause serious injuries and damages to your brain.

    I saw this on a documentary about human parasites.

    You should check with your doctor just in case. It could be something minor, but you should really see your doc.
