Suggest Medication For Hard Lump On The Lower Leg
Since I started cross country at school (I'm 17), I've noticed a small lump on the 'lower lateral leg'. It doesn't hurt whatsoever, however it seems to grow and reduce in size constantly. Its not particularly hard, moderately hard- I suppose. I saw a doctor about this and I'm scheduled for an ultrasound as well as an X-Ray to see if its a cyst or something of the sort.

You need proper clinical examination.
You are rightly advised for ultrasound and X-ray.
FNAC can be done after evaluation.
Generally these are benign findings.
Treatment depend upon findings.
