What Is The Possible Treatment For Goose Egg Like Bump On Inside The Leg ?
I was hit with a softball back in the spring on the inside on my leg. I had a huge goose egg from it and it eventually went away but every now and then when I m on my feet for long periods of time, the knot comes back. Should I be concerned with this?

Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
From the given description, I suspect that it could be due to the development of a venous varicosity (localised dilatation of a vein) secondary to previous injury.
Simple application of an elastic compression bandage at that level will be useful. Inorder to have a thorough evaluation, approach a vascular surgeon and follow the advice accordingly.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
