Sinus Swelling ?
Hello doctor, i am noticing small vertical bone like structure/ swelling above both eyebrows, could it be frontal sinus swelling ??? It doesn't pain but i do notice occasional discomfort with something in forehead tightening and releasing up. I am attaching pic for rough idea though its not visible clearly in pic, thanks for your inputs.

That’s the frontal eminence, it gets more prominent in men with maturity. However, if it’s getting painful you should consult an ENT surgeon for detailed examination to rule out any problems.
