A small lump below my ankle...?
about a week ago i found a small..(like i mean real small... like smaller than a pea) just below my ankle. its hard not soft, and it doesnt feel like its attached to just the skin (like it doesnt move around). just wondering if anyone knows what it mite be? it doesnt hurt, its just kinda odd! its not on the other side, just on my right...
Answers:
I had a small bump just below my ankle bone on my right foot near my heel. I kept an eye on it for months and when I noticed it getting larger, I went to the doctor. Eventually, I had to have surgery on it because it was a tumor. It was not a cancerous tumor...Thank God, but I'm glad I went and had it removed. It was just a fatty tissue. My doctor told me that knots near the foot area are normally cancerous and I began to cry. When he ran tests, everything came back normal, so I had it removed. I would advise you to not wait for it to grow any larger. Just to be on the safe side...please have it looked at. You found that little bitty knot for a reason. God wanted you to find it and have it checked immediately. Good Luck.
