What Could The Lump At The Bottom Of The Calf And Ankle Be?

Hi I am 27 years old 6 ft tall and 12.9 stone. I have a soft lump half way between the bottom of my calf and ankle I have had it a year now, my bottom part of my ankle seems to swell if it's a hot day, I have a strange dull ache in that area, and now I seem to get pains up the inside of my leg up to my knee. Any ideas?

Thank you for asking Healthcare majic.
My name is Dr Ehsan Ullah &
I have gone through your query.

lump in this region of the leg can be due to localized skin lesion or bony deformity such as haglunds deformity also known as pump bump which is due to irritation of soft tissue when bony enlargements rub against shoes.
there can be other causes including inflammation, infection or trauma etc. you need to consult doctor and may undergo radiography of this region and some Labs .


Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
