What Does A Lump Near Ankle Indicate?

Found a hard pea sized lump near my ankle. It sits on a tendon, I believe. It s very noticeable when I bend my ankle outward. It doesnt move and its very hard. Kind of looks like a small pebble in my skin. I m a 24 year old female, healthy and active. I have nevwe had an injury there. What could this be? Should I be concerened.
