Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a small hard red raised non tender painless bump on my shin. Hot wet compresses seem to make it better but it returns, I often wear high socks and wondering if it is an irritation? I have had it for a few months. Any information would be helpful.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such lesion could be lipoma just keep this lesion under observation for any changes if this goes on increasing in size then clinical examination is must if not then just do nothing, and you are not comfortable then you can go for surgery to get this out, hope this information helps ( Clinical examination is the final judge as long as the diagnosis is concern) take care
