Hi,
*Here is what the bump on forehead can be,
1)
hypertrophic scar ( high reactive skin changes when it heals it makes more cells then needed and make it look like scar/ bump in case of circular injury/acne infections and is itchy with sun exposure(Photosensitive).
2)
callus formation- (gradual build-up of tough skin in response to pressure or abrasion)
3) per cancerous lesion /
squamous cell carcinoma in situ {An early stage of
skin cancer that develops from squamous cells (the flat, scale-like cells in the outer layer of the skin). The hallmark is a persistent, progressive, slightly raised, red, scaly, or crusted plaque that may occur anywhere on the skin surface)}
cause of these are
(a) arsenic exposure
(b) sun exposure -more common in tropical climate like India-due to direct sun light exposure 6-8 months/yr.
** Rash need to be checked by a skin doctor , but probably its mostly looks like
1)
dry skin due to winter
2) may be some form of allergic rash
It tend to look more likely to be a third listed cause in case of bump on the forehead but still can not be confirmed before the
biopsy is done.
ADVICE:
consult local skin doctor/
general surgeon and get it check
Here is mostly, what they will do.
1) Will check it for its appearance
2) may need an biopsy to confirm the cause/changes.
3) will only prescribe some medication for itch in case of hypertrophic scar .
4)callous formation nothing to be done if not an cosmetic issue present.
5) in case of precancerous lesion/ squamous cell carcinoma in situ they will simple make a cut and remove the bump and will be all good, this is only kind of cancer that 100% curable so please let them have a look and decide what it might be and help you before it may get worst.
Hope it helps,
