What Could Hard Lump On Shin Attached To The Bone Indicate?

There is a lump on my shin and seems its attached to the bone and is very hard. It has been there for a couple months and was painful in the first week or two but now i dont have much feeling there. Im a teenager if that's needed. Thanks in advance :)

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some bone tumour. It may be ostoid osteoma or osteoclatoma or something else. Or you may have some soft tissue tumor. You should go for ct scan to search the exact location and plane of lesion. If needed go for biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
