Scalp question
Subject: Scalp question

Neuro doc: 


Scalp:  I palpated all around his scalp.  He is bald as an egg.  There are no masses, lumps, s/l BOSSES, cuts, bruises, or any other abnormalities.  There are no maneuvers, which would precipitate the discomfort.


I thought maybe bumps, but I can't get that out of it.   Thanks for any help.
