A member asked:

Why is base of skull on lumpy parts swollen and sore?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lymph nodes?: There are a lot of lymph nodes at the base of the skull. They swell and become sore in response to sore throats, head colds, infections of the scalp, and other problems. An examination by your doctor will likely locate the cause.
