When one gets a bruise, there are broken capillary blood vessels. Blood tends to coagulate there and you will sense a bump. For small bruises, most people will not notice the bump. I have never heard of a malignant bump caused by a bruise. Set your mind at ease. It takes a long time for the body to absorb the blood clot. Itching is a part of healing.
