I have a hematoma on my shin bone. its been almost 4 years now. hurts slightly when pressed and not otherwise.any complications if not removed?

Hematoma?: Since a hematoma implies a fresh pocket of blood usually from an acute injury, if you have had it for 4 years it is probably something else and should be checked for a mor accurate diagnosis
