Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Bruised Shin

hello,
my son fell and hit his shin, about 10 days ago. It was swollen and bruised. We had an x-ray done which was negative for breaks. However, he is still complaining of pain and he now has a large, hard lump on the shin bone. New bruising is also appearing on the area. Is it possible the x-ray was erroneous?
