A member asked:

I have sprained my ankle and now have small lumps appearing on my leg what could they be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hmmm: Leg lumps or ankle lumps? Could be swelling in the tendon, vein rupture, ganglion cyst, etc, recommend having them evaluated by a professional foot and ankle specialist.
