Hard knot: It is hard to answer this vague of question. Maybe due to and old injury or arthritis, if it hurts try seeing a podiatrist.

Many possibilities: Some causes of painful “lumps” may include: bony overgrowths, soft tissue masses, ganglions, fibromas, and cysts. Have it evaluated by a professional to get the right diagnosis.
