Hi I banged my shin a month ago and it has bruised and there is a lump that feels like bone. I can walk ect as normal however the bruise is very tender to touch and I can t kneel down on it as it s painful. Should I get this looked at as it s been a month and still the same?
Lump may be due to reasons like hematoma or collection. It need further evaluation.X-ray of shin bone (AP/Lateral) and ultrasound can be done after evaluation. Treatment depend upon clinical findings and investigation reports. You may need surgical intervention after evaluation.
