A member asked:
I have a very small swollen gland behind my head that's slightly painful as well.

It is ok: Don't worry it will come down alone, the most probable is that was a pilous gland that happened to be obstructed by some dry fat or cell residuals, anyways avoid touching it and applying cold/hot bags may help to accelerate the recovery
