What Causes Hard Bump Above The Eyebrow?

I have a hard bump above my right eyebrow. I noticed recently it had a center making me think it wasn t a cyst but something that could be popped. I just started putting pressure near it and a hard, waxy, smelly white pus came out. What could these be?

hello and welcome to HCM!
I understand that you are having trouble with a lump over your eyebrow that had a central punctum. This description matches that of a sebaceous cyst or that of epidermoid cyst. Treatment involves removal of the cyst wall. I strongly advise you to visit your nearest dermatologist for further management. Hope this answers your query. thanks
