Are tendons lumps against the bone?

Not necessarily, tendons attach the muscle to the bone, so when your muscles contract they move your bones causing body movement, for example, your Achilles tendon attaches the gastrocnemius (big outer calf muscle) and soleus (inner calf muscle) to your calcaneous (heel), and when they contract, you take a step. Now that is not all that makes you take a step, but you get the idea anyway.
