Suggest Treatment For Hard Lump On Leg

Hello,,I am a 35 yr. old female and today I noticed a very small hard lump on the bone coming up the front of my leg just right up above the ankle a little ways,,So I felt the other leg to see if I had one there and I do but not as noticeable,,Feels like a BB under my skin,,No pain with it and its not sore to touch and Im just curious on what it could be.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi maam,

From your symptoms,it seems that it's a bony growth which can be due to

a. osteoid osteoma,
b. osteosarcoma,
c. osteochondroma etc.

I would suggest you to get an x-ray of the leg done and review it with an orthopedician as soon as possible.

Take care
