Do you mean Yellow Pus in a lump on the forehead.

Kindly do describe the lesions you have in some more detail like

Is it a generalised swelling of the forehead ?
Is it a well defined lesion lie a pimple ?If yes, what would be its approximate size ?
Do you have pain in the lesions ?
Is there any redness surrounding the lesions ?
