It : It might be a sebaceous cyst which is benign. They can be removed under local anesthesia by most general surgeons or possibly your primary care physician if they bother you in any way. You should of course get it examined by a physician first.

E.O.P.: If it is immobile, it is probably the external occipital protuberance of the occipital bone. This is the insertion point for the trapezium and ligamentum nuchae. It is almost exactly as you describe. Sebaceous cysts can be hard but are sometime fluctuant and are usually mobile.
