What Is The Non Painful Lump Above My Eyebrows?

A 1.25" soft, non-painful lump has appeared in the last few hours(while sleeping)just right of center and above my eyebrow. It is not painful. I think it may be growing as I am beginning to notice it affecting my ability to furrow my brow, tightly close my eye, etc.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Good evening. From your history of the lump appearing in the last few hours while sleeping, I would presume it to be due to some kind of insect bite with no history of any trauma. If I were your doctor, I would prescribe you with some anti histaminic agent, an anti inflammatory and a proton pump inhibitor for two to three days, and observe the effect before planning anything extra.

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. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
