Large lump at front of lower leg

Hi I am new to the forum and I have read a lot of articles from different people  

I went to my GP practice three weeks ago with a lump in my leg, at the side of my tibia. The GP I saw was non committal and didn't give me any indication of what she thought it may be. She decided to refer me for an ultrasound. 

Three weeks later I am getting a dull ache in the lower leg and my foot keeps going numb, so decided to go back to the doctors and this time saw a different doctor who is a Proffessor who took a completely different approach to the lump. He said it was odd and said he wasn't sure if it was attached to the bone or coming from the muscle. I was told to get an xray first thing this morning and he will expedite any further action..

Needless to say I am very anxious and will feel better once I know the outcome either way  

Anyone else in a similar situation ?
