You can watch a bit: The shins or tibia bones lie just under the skin, so any irregularity of the bone can be felt as a lump just under the skin. Minor trauma to the tibias may result in such bumps. But if they are tender to touch, you have other symptoms such as rash or joint pain, you should see your doctor--a condition called erythema nodosum needs to be considered. See doc, too, if any bump enlarging. Stay well:)
