It IS normal.
When I was 5, I fell down the stairs and got glass lodged into my leg, along with a humoungous gash. I got 21 stitches. It is now 10 years later and i have a small bump in the shape of a candy cane from the way the glass wripped my skin. It is a little whitish to my skin tone, and a very slight bump. That's normal.

Yes, it's part of the scar. Some people have it worse than others. Most of the time it will go away after a little bit or at least lighten depending on how badly you scar.

Abolutely normal. Scar tissue is forming, and it never has the same texture as intact skin. The bump goes down after time, although it will never be perfectly smooth.

Yes sometimes, i had to get stitches on my knuckle once, and there was a lump under there, the doctor said it is scar tissue.

Yes darlin - and sometimes a wrinkle... Sometimes it goes away, sometimes it's for life. There is a medicine called Mederma for scar reduction that is designed to help make your scars smooth and fade.
I have a lot of scars. It helps.
Peace.

This is known as a keloid scar. In some cases they go away, or at least fade.
Some complexions however will have a permanent scar.

if you've just fallen down a flight of stairs as soon as you got the stitches removed, it is
