is this a common frog?

I have seen a couple of frogs recently in our garden, but am a bit perturbed by the shape! I've never noticed the 'lump' being so large before, had plenty of frogs here before. Can anyone shed any light? thanks in advance!

To be honest I can't quite work out what's happened from the photo. It looks like the skin on it's right leg is still attached to its back. Anyway, my response will bump it up & perhaps someone else will know. Could it be shedding it's skin?

I think it is a Common Frog. They do have that basic shape but as you say it does look very exaggerated in that one. It almost looks half-starved but I don't know if that's because of the exaggerated 'bump' or the cause of it
