I fell full weight on my shin against a bumper. it still has a knot , some bruising after 2 weeks. today i had burning sensation, is that a problem?

Shin takes a while: The front part of the leg can bruise easily and can form a hematoma with blood.I would see a primary md to take a look at it.The collection of blood will unlikely form a clot to go else where in your body but swelling pushing on a nerve causing numbness happens at times.
