What Causes Pain In The Glabella?
I just noticed a weird pain, almost like a bruise, in between my eyebrows in my glabella area as i rubbed that part of my face. I have not been injured or hit my head on anything. It feels slightly swollen and it hurts whenever I run my fingers over it.

Hello,
Generally it is the muscles that insert in the area that can be painful. You may take some ibuprofen and paracetamol to help with it.
If you notice no improvement in 3-4 days or you notice any worsening you may need to see a doctor and sometimes xrays may be needed.
I hope I have answered to your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards,
