Hi There,
I am Dr Deepak, I work in Emergency Department.
Sir, as you have told you injured yourself when you were 15 years age. You were young during those days, so your body would have healed properly with response to the injury.
Now also you can feel a hard lump, and you are not having any problem with it. I feel that hard lump, even if it was because of injury, it has healed and formed a bone, which is why its hard. And since you are not having any trouble with it. Then there is no problem.
Thank you
Hope your concern was dealt with.
