A member asked:
I have a sore in the middle left side of head. its been there for six months or more. hurts when touched or combed. what is wrong?

Sore: There is no way to know what it is without being evaluated. Pilar cysts are very common on the scalp, are harmless, but generally do not hurt alhough can be sensitive. I recommend that you have a board-certified Dermatologist evaluate the spot.
