What Causes A Lump On Left Tibia Causing Mild Pain And Itching Sensation?

What type of doctor should I see? I have a lump on my lower left tibia. I noticed the lump 3 weeks ago. I lump itself is painless and I can move it around underneath the skin. Although the lump itself is painless, there is a nagging pain in my lower leg both when I m standing or not standing. Prior to me noticing the lump, there was a nagging pain and the left side of my tibia where the lump was located was itching really bad. The itching lasted for about 2 days, but the nagging pain persists.
