Suggest Treatment For Bump On Back Of Skull

have a bony bump on the back of my skull , it is approximately 15 or so degrees north east of my Occipetal protuberence (sp?) if my OP was Mexico city this strange lump would by located around New York. It doesn t hurt, no head aches, no noticeable symptoms, in pretty tiptop health (eg, BP , Cholesterol , healthy weight, non-smoker.) Never really thought much about it but an officer pulled me over and was sure I was on something due to certain cues. Maybe just to get me to divulge information a guilty man may have, I don t know. I had a professor once that came to class obviously drunk or loaded, and it ended up being a brain tumor of sorts.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, chronicity would be matter of concern, if this is chronic one then it need to be investigated and best would be CT brain if this is not hurting or cause any clinical symptoms then this is nothing to worry because this could be benign lesion, hope this information helps, take care, and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
