What Causes Bump On Forehead?

Hi, I just noticed a bump developing on the left side of my forehead right above my eyebrow into my hairliine and it feels like a bruise. I don't recall hitting my head in the last few days that would cause this to happen and I'm pretty sure I would remember it if I had. Just noticed it late last night or this morning can't remember which, but it seems to be getting worse. Also currently have a headache but that is not uncommon for me, I grew up with migraines.

Hi i did review your concern
You might be having a folliculitis or a furuncle caused by bacteria.
i would advice you to apply topical antibiotic cream like mupirocin, neoomcyin.

also warm compress may help using a clean cloth.

I hope this helps.
Wish you all the best.
