This is a tumor that developed on the scalp of a woman who scratched her head too hard. The scalp was abraded resulting to the lost of its skin cover allowing the soft tissue under the skin to come out. It bleeds easily and starts to smell. I have seen this to grow big as large as a fist of a child. A lot of remedies like povidone iodine, Merthiolate, ointments and lenements had been applied on this tumor without any relief. It got worst from them and grew bigger. Removal of the tumor by surgery is the only treatment.
Moral lesson: no matter how big your problem is, don't scratch your head.
