Is a lump in your forehead that may be the cause of your constant dizziness dangerous to remove?
I had one of these when i fell out of my bike and i hit the ground,and i had concussion,so i was suppost to stay in bed the entire week,and the doctor kept comming every day to check me out and try and make me to sleep.Very annoying! If you have bumped your head accidently and that is the cause of the bump and you are dizzy, please see your doctor right away. If you can't get in to see him please go to a clinic or even ER. Sometimes people can get concusion and that's dangerous, but caught quickly you will be fine. If you just have a bump (a growth) no, it won't be dangerous to remove it.

Please mention those dizzy spells to your doctor if you haven't already done so.

Migraine aura is the second phase of a migraine headache, between the prodrome and actual headache phases. It has a wide array of physical symptoms, but is more commonly known by the visual changes that happen to the sufferer.
The migraine aura phase can include any of the body's senses and can result in:
- ** Flashing lights, geometric patterns, tunnel vision, blurry vision, or complete greying or blacking out of vision.
- Numbness in the extremities, or on the side of the face the migraine is on.
- Weakness in limbs, impaired motor coordination
- Paralysis on one side of the body. (Hemiplegic migraines)
- Confusion
- Impaired speech called aphasia (trouble finding the correct word, slurred speech or speaking in jibberish)
- Inability to make a decision
- Dizziness, vertigo, trouble with balance
- Smelling something that isn't there
- Hearing noises such as ringing in the ears that aren't there
- Tasting something that isn't there
- Alice in Wonderland Syndrome in which perception is changed.
As stated, many people think of the migraine aura only as the visual occurrences. The visual changes are called scotoma - the word for when there is something - usually something dark, obscuring the vision of the eye. A positive scotoma would be any aura where you feel like there is actually something in the way of your vision, whether light or dark. A negative scotoma is when your eye fails to register anything - it isn't that you see black, you don't see anything in the space where it seems dark. A scintillating scotoma is the one most commonly seen - where there is flickering, flashing patterns, or at times a snow almost like the snow on an old TV set.
