welcome to Health care magic.
1.This type of the lumps are of bony origin, they are or benign origin.
2.You don't have to worry about that those.
3.The zinc deficiency is not a major issue, by having healthy died will help to over come.
4.You can not do anything it this stage, only thing you can do is confirmation by getting a CT scan.
5.It is difficult to get rid of it, unless it is causing cosmetic causes.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
