Brief Answer:
lipoma

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You are concerned about a bubble that you discovered on both of your ankles. The picture you sent shows what looks like a lipomas. Without actually feeling the lump that would be my guess as to what that is. This is benign and will not cause you any problems now or in the future. This is no associated with any other disease.

If this is not a lipoma then it is just a fluid filled sac or bursa and again is completely benign and should not worry you in any way. There is nothing you can do or even a doctor can do to resolve this issue. You can live with it without any problems

I hope I answered your question. Please contact HCM again with your health care questions and concerns
