How Can A Lump Below The Knee Be Treated?

Hello and thank you. I have blueberry sized lump below my left knee. Zero pain, i can move it around quite a bit, it is somewhat soft, and it has grown in size since the onset some time ago . When first noticed it was about the size of a pea. Never been painful and no other obvious symptoms. Any ideas?

Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.

Possible lipoma or fibroma. These are benign subcutaneous lesions and can be easily treated with surgery under local anesthesia. I dont see any malignant features in this case.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
