What Does A Lump On Above The Forehead Indicate?

A lump about half the size (diameter) of a golf ball appeared on my LHS forehead above eyebrow. It is hard to touch and not squishy.. kind of looks like a bruise where iv hit my head, only I haven’t. No painful at all and after a few hours started to shrink in size and colour.. become less noticeable. When I first noticed the lump it was slightly discoloured red and bruised looking.. I discovered it after being asleep for 2 hours..

The most possible reason for forehead lump near eyebrow is a dermoid lesion. After clinical confirmation, it requires surgical excision.
