What is the department for a hard bump on the head?

Patients with a hard bump on their head need to consult different departments depending on the origin and nature of the bump. If the patient’s hard pack is a sebaceous cyst formed by local hair follicle infection, the patient needs to consult general surgery to remove the local hair, apply topical Ruyi Jinhuang cream and 0.5% vital iodine gauze to promote local inflammation to absorb and subside more quickly, and then complete surgical excision of the hard pack is feasible after the size of the pack is reduced to avoid recurrence of local inflammation, so as to achieve better treatment effect. Second, if the hard pack on the patient’s head belongs to the intracranial or cranial lesions, the patient needs to consult the neurosurgery department to clarify the specifics of the lesion through perfect head CT examination. Surgery should be performed as soon as possible to remove the local tumor and avoid serious complications such as intracranial hypertension to avoid endangering the patient’s life.
