What type of cyst is this? as well as what should one do?
It is not seeable, it causes no pain, but feels like a moveable piece of bone under the skin and when one touches it moving it side to side it feels like a thread is connected to it pinching a nerve further away from it. It is also located on the forehead just right above the left eye.
Have you seen a doctor about this growth? You need to see a dermatologist to make proper diagnosis and determine what kind of bump it is. They may order some kind of screening test to see if the growth is just a subcutaneous lesion or if there’s intracranial extension.
A doctor may also perform a biopsy to determine what kind of growth it is.
The cysts on the forehead can be removed in endoscopy-assisted surgery.
