I fell real hard and hit an object on the ground with my knee, just below it. I cut that area open because of the hard impact, almost like an indention. That part is almost healed, but now a huge awkward bump remains. Should I see a doctor for that bump, it almost looks deformed.
Hi, happy to help you on your health concern! In the present case of post injury complicated/unhealthy wound healing and a resultant lump, if I were your consulting physician, I would consider following facts:1. As per your description, their is also some injury to underlying bone also! This needs x-ray for confirmation2. The would is not closed with good alignment causing some chronic low grade infection there!3. There could be impaction of some foreign body creating an epidermal inclusion cyst or some granulators inflammation could be fungus also!  Take caution not to get injured there as this might invite more serious infection. If you are still worried, please get an FNAC test /X-ray with microbiological culture/sensitivity test for confirmation and thereafter get examined by a surgeon or revert to us. Hope you got your answer. Please feel free to write to us if any more queries. Wishing you the best health!
