Im 19 with a bald spot

About two months ago i noticed a bald spot dead in the middle of my head. After looking at it my mother realized it was a bumb and after the bump wouldnt go away she decided to pop it herself thinking that it would go down and my hair would grow back. However after the bump was popped the bald spot is still here. It is very annoying i dont know why my hair wont grow back and it is really frustrating me someone please help

Hello,
As your hair follicles are not damaged, so the hair should regrow after some months. If the symptoms persist then medicines like finasteride and Minoxidil may be needed which are available by prescription. My sincere advice would be to consult a dermatologist in that case.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
