What Are The Knots Formed On The Ankles?

My 15 year old daughter plays tennis. Approximately 2 weeks ago a knot formed right above her left ankle, then last week a second one formed on the opposite ankle. Today a third appeared right above her heel. Should we see an orthopedic first, her pediatrician or a dermatologist?

Hi. Definitely an Orthopedic Surgeon should be consulted.
Please ask your daughter to stop play till the diagnosis and definite treatment has been taken.
