What Causes Large, Painless Lump On Wrist?

Some time ago I found a large (about 1 inch diameter) painless lump in my right wrist. I suspected it was some kind of tumor, saw a doctor and had it x-rayed. The doctor said it was just a normal bone, and it's bulging out because of my bad sitting and working positions. How can this be? I don't see a similar ball anywhere on my left wrist, I have tried to find it by touching but nothing. Should I get another opinion?
