Hi will shaving my legs a few minutes ago I notice a hard lump in my leg I can t really tell if it is mobile or not (it is about 6 inch above my ankle bone, inside of leg)...the size is probably the size of a pencil eraser. It is painless. I am 39 yrs old, no significant med hx. I weigh 120 lbs @ 5 8.
Thank you for asking Chat Doctor. My name is Chat Doctor. Depending upon nature of this lump, it can be -sebaceous cyst (Epidermis Cyst) ; (a swelling in the skin arising in a sebaceous gland, )-Lipoma (a benign tumor of fatty tissue.) Xanthoma (a skin condition in which certain fats build up under the surface of the skin)orbit can be just an inflammatory swelling... At ankle regions, Bursitis (inflammation of bursa); when bursa (a small fluid-filled sac) can get damaged by trauma. Such swellings need a clinical assessment by the physician for diagnosis and treatment. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything is not clear. Thanks.
