What Causes Pea Sized Lump On Forehead?
I noticed a small, pea sized lump on my forehead between my eyebrows about 1 1/2 to 2 months ago. It doesn't hurt but does not appear to be going away. I had no major injury but might have bumped in on a small corner while cooking....not enough to stop my preparation. Do I need to see a Dr . It is visibly noticeable.

Welcome to health care magic.
1.The possible causes in this case could be a tiny collection with in the subcutaneous plane. Sebaceous collection in the first place and next possible cause will be hair follicle inflammation.
2.Possbilty a small hematoma after the hit to the area - which will take some time to resolve.
3.Local anti inflammatory cream application to the area will be helpful with monitoring the size.
4.In this case i would recommit not to squeeze,press,scratch the lump - by that you will complicate and rely the healing process.
5.Suggets maintain local hygiene, clean with antiseptic liquid and monitor the lump with local anti inflammatory cream Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask do not hesitate to ask.
