What is wrong with my leg? (Anyone who knows about physical health)?

For almost two weeks, my lower right calf has been in and out of pain. The bone is swollen on the outside, and sticks out a bit. However I have no memory of being injured or hurting my leg in any way.. at first I thought I must have slept on it funny. The pain is slightly less than it was a week or two ago, but the swelling is still there.

And also, last night I noticed that my lower back on the left side also hurt a bit when I walked. Then I noticed there was a bit of a lump/cyst right on my dimple there, and I have no idea what is happening to me.

Are these normal conditions for a 17 year old female in relatively good health (average weight, no health concerns/diseases)? I'm going to the doctor's on Tuesday but I'm a tad worried about what I might have- I've heard that a lot of diseases can come from swollen or painful bones.
What do you think these symptoms could mean?

I think you should see a doctor rather than get random advice on a public message board, where anyone could tell you anything. I mean, people could tell you all sorts of things, we are not doctors. That's my advice :-)

any time you feel a lump it's time to see a doctor, pain is the way your body tells you theres something wrong, leg cramps could mean a lack of potassium, but swelling of the legs could mean poor circulation or blood clots, if it's continuing up to your back it could be a nerve disorder only your doctor can define the actual cause
