Knot on top my calcaneus bone??
I think that is the bone but it is hard like a bone and just popped up after I had been hiking. On the left foot 3inches above my little toe. Is this common? Should I be concerned? Thanks Doc!! What is it called? How is it treated?Heather Johnson…

The calcaneus is your heel bone. If I understand you correctly, you are describing the 5th metatarsal bone. The base of this bone sticks out more in some people than others. If you are concerned, see a podiatrist or orthopedist.
