Suggest Treatment For A Hard Lump On The Lower Right Fibula
I have a hard lump on my lower right fibula. I don t know how long I ve had it, as it has never caused me any pain or discomfort, but I first noticed it about 18 months ago. That was a few weeks after injuring that leg somewhat at work, so I just assumed it was a bruised, swollen bone, but the lump hasn t gone away. Still no pain. It feels like bone.

Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, you should get your X-ray of the leg done to rule out any bone minor fracture and consult an orthopedic surgeon for any possible tendon injury or bursitis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
