Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I took a whack in a field hockey game to the ankle and now after the swelling has gone down, there is a lump next to the ankle, about 2-3cm s on the front.. I have full range of motion and can walk/jog without issues.. What is the lump..? it hurts a little bit when I pull my foot away/downwards
Lump near the ankle joint could be hematoma due to trauma. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
