I have a bean sized knot on the side of my face, along my jaw line. It's not painful, but it's noticeable and there's a small bald area there. I can't afford to see a doctor about it right now, and I don't start my new job until next week(praise God, I was unemployed for almost 2 years. I just need prayer that it's not serious. My friend says he gets them sometimes, but he's able to bust them, I don't think I can do that, the knot I have is more solid.
