Suggest Treatmment For Painful Bump On Shin

I am a D1 athlete. I go through rigorous conditioning and lifting and at some point I must have bumped my shin because I have a rock hard bump a little below my knee that s been on the bone for about a month and has gotten more and more painful. Especially when I bend my knee or go up stairs. Ice doesn t help this at all and it hurts to the touch..
