Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Hard lumps on the leg can be related to a cyst or dermatofibromas.
They are both benign conditions which should be evaluated by an ultrasound of the leg.
The ultrasound can confirm the diagnosis.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
