What Does A Lump On The Temple Indicate?

I have just found a lump on the right side of my head, close to my temple. All week I have been experiencing nausea and headaches. I was taking an antibiotic for three days for a bite but I discontinued it thinking it was the cause of my nausea and headaches. The nausea went away but not the headache. I occasionally get light headed as well. The lump is hard, not soft. It does not move. I am on vacation for another 3 days and am getting concerned.
