Suggest Treatment For Small Lump On Left Leg

default
Posted on Tue, 21 Jul 2015
Question: Hi, I am female 26 years old. I noticed today while I was on the gym that a small lump appears on my left leg when I am pushing my leg (specifically I noticed it when I was jumping during an exercise). It doesn't hurt and hence I noticed it at the gym when I was in front of the mirror. Any advice?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I have reviewed your information fully. There are no reasons to suspect that this lump represents a disease. During exercise, muscles contract and that may represent a contracted muscle and nothing much. However, it s too early to conclude. I will suggest that you provide an image for further review. This way, I will be sure that am not missing out on anything that needs to be investigated further at this time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
