Hello !
Thank you for your question on HCM!
I think that the small hard lump on your head is not a problem. It may be caused by a fibrous tissue after a subcutaneous hemorrhage . The occasional head and back pain may not be related to the trauma. It is more possible to be caused by muscular contractions from degenerative changes of your spinal column, or a possible wrong position during the day.
The seizure after a hit is a feature of head concussion , but it happens usually only once.
So to conclude I would say that there is nothing to worry about.
Hope to have been of help!
Best wishes, Dr. Abaz Quka
