hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general or an orthopedic surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. different tumor lesions must be considered including malignancies. diagnostics (such as MRI and biopsy) may be suggested initially. management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
