I have this odd patch of psoriasis in the back of my head. Since I can't see it I didn't know how ugly it was. However, I could feel it getting lumpy.

I have a family history of cancer. Strange lumps where they shouldn't be are concerning.

I showed it to one of my dermatologists and they suggested I visit my primary. I jumped the queue and got an appointment to see *someone* yesterday. They're pretty sure it's a pilar cyst which are mostly benign but can become painful if infected.

I'm relieved it's not the big C - but I'm getting blood tests later this month and I'll speak to my other dermatologist next month about it.
