What Causes A Lump On The Forehead?
Hi, a lump appeared on my forehead just above my right eyebrow. It is about the size of a penny, red but not itchy. It appears to be a number of lumps joined into 1. I also have a slight swelling at my jaw below my right ear which started at the same time 2 days ago

As you have lump and they are look like fusing with each other I advise you to investigate with FNAC or biopsy to do histopathological examination...
According to cause specific treatment given
If report suggest Benign tumours like skin adnexal tumour than needs to be excised and removed
Consult dermatologist or surgeon for examination and further work up...(After examination further treatment plan can be decides)
Take care
