    Cosmetic lumps and bumps are common even when structurally healed well. If you aren't happy you should speak with an orthopaedic surgeon with specialist interest in upper limb (they don't all have this interest).
    Smoking (usually tobacco) is not good for bone healing.

    Hey man, thanks for the post, particularly the bit about the smoking being bad for bone healing. It led me to do some searching around and reading some research literature on the science of smoking and bone healing and frankly it's terrifyingly compelling, the numbers are significant enough to have made me decide to go cold turkey. Don't want jeopardise or undermine the healing process. Thanks once again.
