One of two things: Either related to scoliosis you have or something else. Need to be checked by orthopedic surgeon he will be able to tell you.

It may be a lipoma: Most lipomas are benign, non-tender, being circumferential in size and dome-like in appearance.

Possible explanation: I suspect you have junctional kyphosis at the end of curve and the bump is a normal spinous processs more promient there because the spine bends forward as part of th e overall deformity or difference in mobility the curves are stiffer than the normal parts of th spine.
