so the ball ontop there is about the size of a golf ball
Just don't stick your face over it! That is unless you enjoy incubating alien babies in your stomach!

One of my Hammer corals did something similar a while back, not quite as large & distended though. Eventually it disappeared & Hammer is still fine. No ill effects anywhere in the system.

Had that happen to a Favia in the store, after a few days it stopped blowing bubbles. Don't pop it, I've learned popping anything in your aquarium is not good.

Yup, happens once in a while with my LPS. Nothing bad ever happens from it, so I wouldn't worry. Leave it be.

I had this happen to a hammer, my clowns host in it and at night they grab a hammer or two so they don't get blown around in th current. one night when I turned the moon lights off it spooked one of the clowns and she pulled off the hammers she had in her mouth the next day there was a bubble where the injury was lasted a couple weeks. I would guess that every time you poke at the bubble it is being re-injured and blows up larger to protect it self. Just leave it be and it will go down by it's self.

My little favia frag has been doing that for at least a month. I took a look just now thinking that I could share a picture but it seems to have deflated all of a sudden.

ok so i was doing some cleaning on my tank today and i accidently hit the bubble i posted a picture up of on here and kinda said oh s@#t (someone posted a comment saying that poping it would be bad) so i kept an eye on it and sure enough a couple minutes later i had a baby bristle star appearing from undernieth my coral ISNT THAT CRAZY! i have a big brisle in my tank but only one its probably about 8-10" round i would guess ( thought id share because i think its pretty cool) if i can get some pics il post them.
