Could Itchy, Soft Lump On Shin With Grey Centre Be A Bruise?

My husband has a soft lump on shin area. It is the size of a half dollar and soft to the touch. The center of it seems to have a greyish color to it.....possible a bruise? But he said he doesn t remember hitting his leg on anything. And just to the right of it, he said it is itchy.....it could be just a coincidence. Any ideas???
