A member asked:

I have a hard bump on my leg between pelvis and knee, and it just recently started hurting. should i see my doctor? or try treating it at home?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

YES: If you do not recall anything that could have caused this, it is time to see your primary care physician. There are so many possible yhings that can cause a bump in that area, that it is best to have it looked at.
