What Causes Lump Under The Skin On Temple?
I have a little bigger than pea sized luomp that moves around under my skin on my right temple. Most of the time it doesn t bother me, but sometmes it gives me a head ache and blurs the vision in my right eye. I mainly just feel pressure when it s bothering me. I had a doctor tell me it was a calcium deposite and not to worry, but I ve had it for about 8 years now. It hasn t really grown a whole lot, it s more like it just gets inflamed sometimes.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, two possibilities are there as long as the swelling that you have one is lymph node and second it could be dermoid cyst, for the cosmetic purpose it can be excised, and this is nothing to worry, for the safety purpose and differential diagnosis MRI can be done, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
