Thread: i have a hard red lump on my left shin?

i've had the lump about 4 months and not really worried about it,until a friend saw it and said it might be something bad,it's not very big or sore,but its quite hard and red it doesn't bleed or itch and i don't think it's got any bigger,i don't want to go to the doctors if it's nothing cause i'll feel a right fool ,but i am thinking the worst now and the more i look at it the more i'm convincing myself it is something to worry about,as any one else had any lumps like it?

Wow I have the same thing on my LEFT shin! i have no clue what it is.. We should both go the doctors, it probably is nothing serious but it will be worth it for peace of mind.
