[|Human|] I hit my leg about three months ago and have a lump on my leg. I went to my family doctor for another injury on the same leg which is a tibelis hernia while I was being see I asked him to also check a lump I felt on my leg. He took an x ray of the lower leg and it did not show anything and he said it is just a cyst. I thought about what could have caused it and about an week after I seen my doctor I remembered helping a co worker pick up a filling cabinet that overturned and as we were picking it up the drawer opened and hit my leg/shin. Could have this caused the lump which is in the same area?
[|AI|]  Hi! Thanks for your post sharing the issue of a leg lump! Well, if I were your family physician I first would advise you to take rest as this is aggravated by and possibly was created by kind of injury and I must consider few possibilities in your case:1. A hematoma due to silent bleeding2. A bursa3. A ganglion4. Skin edema and infection5. Gouty tophus6. Parasitic cyst or inclusion cystTherefore see an orthopedic surgeon for a better assessment and to discuss regarding possible management. Take care; regards,
