I wouldn't worry about it unless it continues to grow or becomes painful or gives you headaches. It may be a sore, a small cyst, or even just a bone spur (all of which would be harmless).

Bony Lump

I went to see a doc yesterday but they told me my headaches were just tension so I went to the hospital today and got a catscan. They said everything looked fine. Nothing to worry about.

Bony Lump At Base of Skull

I have a bony lump at the base of my skull kind of behind my left ear- there is also one of these bones on the right side but the left side is larger and now it is sore- maybe because I am messing with it all the time.
