Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I noticed a lump on my tibia near my knee on my right leg, i had it x-rayed and it came back negative for osgood schlatters, what could it be? It hurt if u apply some pressure on it other than that it doesnt hurt on its own, maybe with some leg movements but not really. I am stressing myself out over this lump because i usually think the worst so please help!
What is the approximate size and how long it is there? Any history of trauma there? If it is there for long, like years, and no much progressive enlargement or pain, this unlikely to be something serious like cancer. Usually, radiologist will be able to mention few possibilities considering your age, the appearance on X-ray and medical history.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
