What Causes Painful Lump On The Ankle After An Accident?

Hi, i have a ping pong ball sized lump on the top of my left ankle. I have had it for about 2 years now after a small stunt scooter accident. Recently it has started to get a little sore and swollen again. When i turn my ankle anti-clockwise to make a revolution with my foot, it is quite sore. What wrong with my ankle?

Hi,Dear,thanks for your query to HCM services.In my opinion it appears to me -a fibrous callosity-a non-resolving fibrous lump,with bursitis on the lt ankle.The soreness lately-indicates inflammatory bursitis or fibrositis-post-chronic friction trauma for 2 long yrs.Treat with NSAID would relieve it.If not you need to show it to ER doctor for investigation and treats.Thank again.Wellcome again.Take care.
