Small bump,size of a pea on middle of forehead, feels hard to touch. what is it?

MD evaluation: This may represent a benign growth but a malignancy must be considered. Unfortunately, even benign spots can enlarge over time and become more difficult to treat. Furthermore, the mainstay of cancer cure is early detection and early treatment. I would strongly recommend having a physician evaluate the area and consider biopsy if indicated.
