What Causes A Bump On The Lower Leg After An Injury?
I fell and hit my shin really hard about 2 weeks ago. I have a big bump still and the lower part of my leg down to the side of my foot is all bruised. A few days ago the bump has become itchy ( the bump is not bruised). Should i go to the dr? Is this something to be worried about?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
I suggest using cold compresses at the bump area.
I also suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms.
I recommend using Cetirizine for the itching.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
