Four weeks ago my son injured his shin playing football when another player struck him with his football cleats. There was a minor laceration which I cleaned and applied antibacterial ointment to. There is a persistent hard bump that remains which is approximately the size of half a walnut shell. Should I be concerned about the bump?
