Suggest Treatment For A Lump Appearing On The Leg

I have had for about 20 years a growth on my leg below the knee and it has been getting larger every year and now is the size of a lime on the outside of my leg. It is hard and hotter than the rest of my leg, there are 2 large veins running thru it and it can not be touched or severe pain will result....any ideas as to what it is so I can take a natural approach in getting it resolved

Hi,Dear thanks for the query to HCM.I studied your query in-depth.
-I advise you on
Cause and treatment- as follows
-In my opinion-Your lump has been there for quite many yrs as told by you.
-Hence you should not take natural approach but a studied Approach as advised from a ER Surgeon and your family doctor who both could treat it nicely for you.
-Sever pain with large veins with hard lump suggests-?Osteo-clastoma-on outside of your knee area.The fact that it was present for many yrs and has recently grown in to hard hot lump with sever pain-indicates -Osteo-clastoma of the Fibular Head
Treatment-would be-
-Confirm the diagnosis by FNAC Biopsy from ER Orthopaedic-Surgeon.
-IF the HPR is Giant Cell Tumour-
Marginal Intralesional Excision of Osteoclastoma- of fibular head with Peroneal nerve preservation could be planed by your orthopaedic surgeon.
This would help you to plan a treatment for this query.
So dont worry and act fast ASAP.
Hope this would help your worry to take proper steps for health.
Wishing you fast recovery.
Wellcome again if you have any more query in this regard.Have a Good Day.
