A member asked:
I have a medium lump or knot on my forehead that putting icepacks to it doesn't seem to be doing it anygood, what else can i do for it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Forehead knot: If the lump is from trauma, and it's recent, then you're doing the right thing: icepacks and pressure. There's not much more to do than that. It'll take a days to weeks for a good sized knot on the forehead to reabsorb.
