Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
the lump over the temple region can be a folliculitis or hair follicle infection. Nothing to be panic, consult a general physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole (if you are not allergic).
I hope I have answered your query. Take care.
