Raised Visible Bump On The Inside Of Right Shin That Is Sensitive To Touch
Im 24. I'm in pretty good shape. Started playing basketball again recently and a couple days ago noticed this visible bump/lump on the inside of my right shin. It's about an inch and a half above the (not sure what its called, but the ball bone on the inside of my ankle). It a little bit bigger than a quarter in circumference. A little sensitive to the touch, but I probably wouldn't have noticed it without seeing it. It is raised, and I can kind of move it around by pushing on the different sides of it. It feels like it's almost sliding across the shin bone.
