SO.... it all started a year ago.

Getting drunk at a party, i got punched in the head. Had a sore lump there for a week, and since then ive had a hard painless lump there. I recently got it x-rayed after a year! and it didnt show up on the x-ray. I was sent to a specialist to talk about removing it, but he concluded that to remove it, we'd need to chizzel it off as its become part of the bone or something!!! Bummer!

about 3 months ago, i fell down on my elbow, and it was painful, and a hard lump appeared.... i still have it now, its painless but again feels like its stuck to the bone!

3 days ago.... i slammed my head in a door! I have one big lump on my right side, and 3 smaller ones on the back!!!

They all feel like theyre bone already!!! They don't move around at all, but are still very painful!!!!

Im TERRIFIED that these will do what the other bumps did and turn/attach to the bone... or whatever they're doing!!! I can't see how this is possible, but feeling it right now.... it just really feels like its a lump of bone! Tender bone!

Whats going on here!!!! i CANT LIVE WITH BUMPS HERE!!! seriously cant, they're big and if i were to cut my hair short they'd make my head look mutated!!!!

:eek: are you really a mutant!!!! No, I'm really sorry about all your knots. My first reaction is to tell you to please be more careful, you only get one body in this life, limit your getting drunk to prevent further injury. I have seen trama to bones and sorry to say that sometimes after healing you are left with lumps etc., depending on the force and treatment there of. I'm not a dr. but maybe it has something to do with the way bone heals , calcium deposits etc., You could always just ask your dr. to explain to you how bone heals, he can do a better job then me. As long as you don't start growing extra arms or legs and you check with the doc, chances are you'll be fine. Please be careful:wink:

mmm, oddly enough getting my head slammed in a door wasnt even when i was drunk! It was me running around the workplace like a school-girl!!

I would ask my doctor... but he's so dismissive! He won't believe what i say!!! He just says that im being paranoid and they will go, but after the elbow, i'm genuinely scared i'll have these lumps there forever!

Well you could always get a second opinion say with an orthopedic doc. to set your mind at ease. I don't know how old you are but usually the younger people worry about any imperfection to their bodies and the older you get they really don't matter your just glad to be around. Find a doc who will listen to your concerns and believe him.:smile:
