Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Lump On The Eyebrow With Sore Throat And Headache?
My daughter has a lump in her right eyebrow that suddenly came up on her eyebrow. She s had a sore throat for 3 to 4 weeks with low grade fever, now complaining of headache and severe sore throat. The Doctor gave her steroids and she s been on Zyrtec sudafed and ibuprofen as well as singulair. Do you think she has a sinus infection?
I read your message and understood your medical issue.
Eyebrow lumps can be caused by folliculitis, any dermoid cyst or other types of cysts including the sebaceous ones. They can go way on their own but usually, they need a topical treatment. The treatment is based on the cause that has created the lump.
Apple cider vinegar and aloe vera gel can be used as home remedies to treat the eyebrow lump.
I believe that maybe a re-infection has occurred or it has produced a more severe swelling of tonsils and the neighbor structures of the throat. Is is possible for sinus infection too.
My advice is to send a culture sample of the throat mucus to the microbiology lab. Distinguishing the exact cause will help in finding our the exact cause.
