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.
Hi i have a lump on my shin , i sprained my calf about two months ago but it has healed. This lump appeared there about a month ago. Its tender to the touch and is about nickle sized i can touch it and feels hard not soft more so like a bruise but its not black and blue or red sore what could this be.
It could be a hematoma that should resolve on its own, if it does not in another week or so then visit a doctor who will help evacuate it. And if it is not a hematoma then your doctors visit will give you the accurate diagnosis.
Best wishes.
