What could this bump on my forehead be if i didn''t have an injury?'

Hard to lnow: Likely it is something quite benign. I have seen lipomas (fatty tumors), sebaceous cysts, osteomas (benign bony tumors). These are easily distinguished with physical exam. See your doc. I cannot rule out other problems that may need more urgent care.
