Hello, I'm really stressed out about this small bump below my knee. Firstly I'm going to see the doctor, but I just have so much anxiety about it right now. Thing is I have had swollen lymph nodes on the neck recently and have a few painless lipomas around the body that I never got checked, but gonna get them checked tomorrow, because I think it all might be a sign of something bad. What's worrying me the most though right now is this bump on the leg. First I noticed it like a month ago and it was very small and completely painless, so I didnt pay attention much to it and was still working out and running. Though a week ago I got first aches on it, but went away quite fast. The same day I got swollen lymph nodes on the neck, because a cyst popped out on the back of my head. Doctor prescribed me antibiotics and said to come back after a week if it doesnt get better. The cyst came down and neck lymph nodes got smaller, though this weekend I started having aches on that leg bump again. These past three days that I have been having them it only got worse. First it was only mild aching, now aching is almost constant and I get some moments of short sharp pain. Also I think the bump might have gotten a bit bigger, even though its still pretty small. I'm also not sure maybe these symptoms are caused by health anxiety, which has been really awful for me lately, I can't even fall asleep past few days, because of the aches and anxiety. I also feel aching when I put pressure on the leg, like when walking. I've been reading alot about symptoms and I'm really worried about bone cancer osteosarcoma. Though I don't many other symptoms, such and night sweats or waking up with pain. I can't fall asleep, but I don't feel fatigued much. I have doctor appointment for tomorrow, though would still like to get opinion here, could this be something not serious and just anxiety is causing me most of this, or does this really sound like bone cancer.

It's small, roundish, not swollen. Doesn't hurt that much when u press it, just aching on itself. Really hard and not movable, feels like a bone.
Thank you.
