I have a mass on my shin bone, for many years. It hasnt bothered me really, never had a doctor to look at it, because I heard if it doesnt hurt and the mas moves then its just a cyst. But now I have another one and the leg that has the cyst is starting to hurt. And I found another mass at the bottom of the same leg and it does hurt.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should consult doctor and get done clinical examination of your swellings and ultrasound of swellings. Possibility of neurofibromas are high. Asteroid Osceola is also another possibility. Both these are benign bone swellings. And usually no treatment is required but if they are enlarging in size or in number or become painful or restrict movements then surgical removal is needed. Since you are having multiple swellings with pain, better to get done surgical removal. But first consult doctor and diagnose them.
