It looks like a callus to me, but I don't know how a dog would get a callus on the back of her head.
You can have a vet look at it and take a scraping to see if it is a fungus or a bug so that you can use the correct medication on it.
I don't think it is going to turn out to be anything life threatening, so don't be worried about it, but get it taken care of in case it is something that will spread.
No one can give you an OTC remedy without knowing what it is and no one can diagnose it from a photo.
Does the dog repeatedly stick her head into a too-small opening? Little doggie door or under hole in fence?
