A member asked:
Two round hard, and almost the size of a dime on the back and lower part of my skull, one on each side closer to the ears ?

"Closer to"?: By "closer to" do you mean just behind and below your earlobes? Do you mean your mastoid processes? If so, they've been there your whole life. Odd that you didn't notice them till now. Look at some diagrams of skull anatomy.
