  1. pilar cyst

    A pilar cyst, also known as a trichilemmal cyst, is a round, small, and sometimes painful lump that forms under the skin. It occurs due to an overgrowth of cells in the hair follicle, typically located on the scalp. These cysts are filled with keratin (a type of protein) and are benign, meaning they are not cancerous. While they aren't dangerous or harmful, they can be removed surgically for comfort or cosmetic reasons.
