Pressure on nerve: The lump is pressing on a nerve causing your numbness. The lump may be a varicose vein or a cyst. An MRI and examination would tell.

See a podiatrist.: Numbness is never normal, and if you're having pain and swelling or "lumps", you should definitely see a doctor to rule out fracture, ganglion cysts, tendinitis, or entrapped nerves.
