Leg pain

so i have been playing basketball since last year. During one of my games i went and set a pick on this girl, anyways i did it right but in the end she hit my leg and let a bruise from my knee down until where my ankle started. It has been two months and the bruise is gone but there is still a tiny little pump. You can barely notice until someone or something touches it and when they touch it, it still friggin hurts. So i was wondering should i go to the doctors or just let it do its thing?

That lump I was told by my p.e. teacher is normal I think she said it was calcium build up but Im not sure. I had something similar happen and was also concerned so I asked my teacher and thats what she told me. Except I got my bruise on my knee from playing soccer. Once the bruise was gone there was a lump there for quite a while but it'll go away eventually. Just try not to poke it or anything cause as you know it just makes you hurt. Hope this helped :)
