I've just had FUE hair transplant. Lately I have been gettin a lot of headaches and have just noticed a lump at the back of my head, about and inch above hairline to the left on the bone. This lump is hard and doesn't move and is a little tender around the sides of this lump. The lump isn't in my donor area and now I'm concerned. I'm not sure if this is related to my FUE. I also had my scar from previous FUT revised but again the lump isn't near that. Please help

If the scabs that you cleaned had the follicle attached to it then you have lost the graft. However most of the time, the hair shaft falls off with the scabs and the follicle still remains under the skin. In that case the hair will start to grow in after a few months.
At this point, you should be healed and can return to normal routine. If you are doing a surgery the Anastasia should not effect the transplanted hair.
Itching after surgery is normal and is indicative of hurling process. Sometimes an OTC hydrocortisone cream helps with the itching. But to be sure visits with your doctor.
