What could cause a small, hard, bony lump on the right side of my forehead? it's not visible, but i can feel it.

Multiple things: It could be a lipoma, sebaceous cyst, or even a bony abnormality. It is hard to tell without an exam. I would recommend that you see your physician to get the proper evaluation and treatment.
