Itâs an exostosis (osteochondroma )arising from proximal humerus .if itâs small size clinically not causing any symptoms then no need to worry ..if itâs giving u pain or any compressive symptoms ..need to remove it surgically ..we can wait till 2 more years so that growth completes at proximal humerus .
