I have a little lumpy on the right side of my temple. It is like the size of a small pebble and moves easily. Some days i notice it more than others and some days more painful. I am only 21 and i weight 125 and workout regularly but i have had a lot of headaches and lightheadedness lately.
Hi! Good morning. i am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Even though from your history it seems to be a harmless benign lump on your temple like a lipoma or a dermoid, I would advise you to get it examined by a general surgeon and if advised, get it removed and send it for a histology test for a mental peace. On your headaches and lightheadedness , I would advise you to get your blood pressure recorded as a routine during such spells.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
