How To Treat A Large Lump On The Forehead?
I have a huge, hard, dark bump on my forhead, seemingly like a pimple forming! I ve tried to pop it and it got bigger, I ve tried pressing down on it and it got bigger. I iced it, and now I m at the point where I really want to know what it is, and it also really hurts when I touch it and I have no clue where it came from, or when it began forming!

Hi and welcome to HCm
this is probably ateroma and it can be surgically removed under local anesthesia so consult your surgeon about it. Wish you good health. Regards
