How Can A Lump On The Forehead Be Treated?
I developed a boil about a month ago. It took a full week for it to grow and pop. All the puss and blood drained from it, but now I still have a hard lump on the side of my forehead. Will it go away on it’s on or do I still have to treat it? How do I treat it?
