A week ago I noticed a red hard bump. The next day the leg got swollen in the afternoon. The sides of my ankle get swollen and tender to touch. The area above my heel hurts. I have like a burning feeling. Some people say that something stung me; but others say that may be that is injury related. I just know that I woke up and found that bump. Thanks for your help in this guessing game. I am so scared. See pictures:

Both are right, there may be a sting or there may be some injury.
If there is an injury, you need to have an x-ray which will reveal if there is any hairline fracture.
For Sting: Take Apis M 30C - 4 pills 4 times a day
For blunt injury : Take Arnica 1M single dose followed by Arnica 30C - 4 pills 4 times daily , appy Arnica mother tincture on the affected part till the swelling reduces.
Both are homeopathic medicines and there are no side effects.
Hope this helps.

try to consult a doctor but it looks as if you damaged your leg. damaged area is too big for a bite and I don't see any certain trace, it must be there if it's a bite. ice it for 2 days then warm it. try Dolobene gel, troxevazin for first two days, Dolgit, Indovazin... that bump means you hit your leg somewhere.

sounds like, but doesn't look like lyme disease.
