Dear, I am sure as a child you must have had multiple cuts and bruises over your skin and some of the scars are still around. Similarly when along infection heals it can leave a permanent scar. As long as you are not having any problems do not worry about the xray we are here to cure you not your x-ray and since it has been there for 30 yrs it is unlikely to cause any new problem now. You can breathe easy
