I have a large lump on my forehead, looks like a spot but is almost the size of a ping pong ball, is it a boil and should i do anything ?

Lipoma: If it is soft it is likely a benign mass. A lipoma or fatty mass or a sebaceous cyst are my top choices. These can be removed by ENT doctor or facial plastic surgeon.
