What Causes Lump Under Shin?

Hi Doctor. I m 33, female and I have a small lump underneath a patch of red flaky skin on my right shin which has been there for about 3weeks. The lump is smaller than a 5cent coin and hurts if I press it. Could you please advise what it could be? The red patch is not itchy though. Thanks a lot

Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.
It is difficult to diagnose this without examination, so would suggest you to upload the picture of the same for better assessment and to provide you with specific advice, you can directly send me question in premium question. Or you can see local doctor for examination and further help.
It might be small hematoma, as a result of some blunt injury, but need to be confirmed.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
