We thought the bump on the top of his head would go away as he aged - it never did!

Oh wow!!!!!! My last dog had that. But it got worse as he aged and later was put down. We think it was an autoimmune disorder

Google AI overview:
"A prominent bump on a Boxer puppy's head, known as the occiput or 'knowledge knot,' is a normal part of development as the skull grows, typically disappearing or reducing as they mature. Often called an 'egghead,' this temporary cone shape does not usually indicate health issues, though it should be monitored."
