Not much you can do and the injury is probably old and healed as best it will ever heal. Like above poster stated, as long as eating and living well, not much more to do. It will probably just be deformed for the rest of its life in that area. As far as hiding...its what snakes do LOL!! If fed well, kept at correct temps, and in general comfortable, they just chill till they need to feed, warmup, etc. I wouldnt necessarily take it as an indication its ill from the injury.
