What Lumps ? Where.: The story was just getting interesting. Where did you notice the three lumps ? Suspicious lumps need to be seen. Ibuprofen does not always help with every headache. A helpful alternative is an Excedrin type for headache control. To remove all doubt, consult with your primary care physician.
