Hey Junior!

Is this "bump" bone or soft tissue? I may have some suggestions for you. I am a Surgical First Assistant and have seen my share of bumps!

Best wishes!  JD1963

    There may be nothing you can do about it.  Sometimes our body will grow tissue around an injured area - even after having the extra tissue removed, sometimes it will grow back as the brain perceives it as still needing a cushion.
     I have a slight bump over my eyes from when I was little and bumped my forehead on the ashtray in our old car.   I used to feel it thinking I would grow a horn like a unicorn!! (silly kid)
     I have a friend who has a bump over her left eye as a result of a car accident.  It will always be there - She just combs her hair over it to avoid the questions and stares....
     Hope this info was helpful.
