Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry about. Visit to a dermatologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.
The bump may be due to soft tissue swelling due to dandruff.
Another possibility may be bony prominence. Some asymmetric is expected between right and left side.
Nothing serious and not related to brain abnormalities.
If you are very much concerned,then get a consultation of dermatologist for examination.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
