Question : I have a small lump left temple just above cheekbone. It has kind of come and gone over past 2-3 weeks but a bit larger this am. My BP has also increased over the same time period and have added Amlodipine to my metoprolol. Any correlation or is it something else?

Brief Answer:
Picture of the lump and further information need

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and am sorry for the situation you are in.

Can you send a picture of the lump?

Apart the medications you are reporting, do you:
- suffer from any other disease (diabetes)?
- take any other medication?

By the way, there is no connection between the lump you have and medications you take?

Looking forward to have the pictures and medical data in!
Dr.Albana
