welcome to Health care magic.
1.White thing in the bone are hemangiomas generally, they are incidental findings no intervention will be done.
2.If it is seen in the muscle, its muscular calcifications seen in case of previous infections after healing.
3.Your x-ray first and second changes seems like - some sclerosing changes after a fracture.
4.Suggest to wait to see the x-ray by a specialist / doctor before jump in to conclusion.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
