What Causes A Hard And Painful Lump On The Forehead And Nosebleed?

i have a very large lump on my forehead that has just appeared over the past few months. It is hard and painful when I am having a headache. I typically do not get headaches but am noticing them more and more often. I noticed the lump appear after a second visit to the ER for an uncontrollable nose bleed, which I have never experienced before.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Where is the lump?? Since when your suffering from headache.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. It may be dermoid cyst or lipoma or boil etc.
Bleeding from the nose may be due to different cause like sinusitis or polyps or vigorous blowing of nose etc.
Sinus headache may be possible. Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day.
Apply pressure over the nose for few seconds.
If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will do nasal packing then examine through endoscopy treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
