About 8 years ago my ex-boyfriend hit me on the top of my head. i now have a knot that seems to get bigger. anything i can do about it?

Knot on top of head: Has it been there since the time of injury ? Growing since then or just now? Would get xray of head and then possibly CT of head or MRI as lesions can be bone ,cartilage , or other tissue . Base on the findings you could proceed. F/U w/ doc
