Suggest Treatment For Lump Like Bruise On Ankle

Last weekend I notice a lump/ bump on the front of my ankle. It felt like a bruise, from bumping into something, but I had not done that. On Sunday the bump wasa still there and again felt sore as if I had bumped into something. Today the bump is still there and I noticed purple bruising from the heal to the front of my arch. Is this something I should be concerned about?
