Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that may be a possibilty as well. My leg below the bump has become discolored and the discoration is is moving toward my foot. I was talking with some of my co-workers (PTs (I am an OT) )and they had no idea...one wanted me to go get x-rays but I don't think anything is broken. I hope within the next week to be back at it. I would love to go out for a run or walk but it hurts way too much. Oh well, could be worse. I will just take some naps and enjoy my down time while it lasts.
