How Can Bruising Pain In The Shin Along With A Lump After A Baseball Injury Be Treated?
I m a 50 year old man and about four weeks ago, my 16 year old pitcher son hit me in the shin with a fast ball. After a few weeks of bruising, pain, and heat at the impact site, I now have a hard lump on my shin bone that doesn t move but is a little painful. What is this hard lump and should I be concerned?

Hello,
Hard lump could be local bone and soft tissues inflammation due to the trauma. I recommend taking calcium supplements coupled with naproxen or ibuprofen.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
