A member asked:

Very localized tender knot on mid shin with swelling. no discoloration or warmth. could it be just or bruise or possible clot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a clot: This is not likely a clot as clot are usually found in the deeper veins in the calf region (on other side of the shin). It may be a bruise, cyst or nodule from a healing bruise. If symptom does not improve, see a physician for further evaluation. Good health.
