Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a hard lump that appeared after a bruise injury caused by blunt impact on my lower shin from taking a slap shot to the shin at hockey about 6 months ago. It is still there, also i have seemed to have lost feeling in the general area of the injury... I was wondering if it would be worth getting checked out by a doctor. I am 17
I think you should get checked by a doctor. He would examine you physically. The fact that you are saying you lost feelings there means that you are having nerve damage.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
