Frequent Lump Formation On The Forehead. Severe Headaches. What Is Causing These?

Hi, I have lumps that keep coming up on the right side of my forehead. They appear between just above my hair line & my eyebrow & from th middle of my forehead to my temple. These lumps vary in sizes & they go away after a few hours.
I am getting headaches shortly before the lumps appear.
I have had a cat scan done of my brain & that come back as clear of any problems.
Doctors tell me that they can't tell what it is as i have not seen them while I have the lump visable during my doctors visit.

Can you tell me what test I should be getting done to find out what it is please?

Hi,
It seems that lumps are of allergic nature or some scalp ingrowing hair follicle infection.
Do hair wash regularly.
Do not keep your scalp wet for more time.
Try some antihistamine like Cetrizine as and when required.
As your all tests are normal, there is nothing serious.
Ok and take care.
