Suggest Treatment For A Lump On The Leg
I have a spot on my leg, it is the size of a quarter. It is on my right calf. I have had it for about 3 weeks. It is more like a bump. It is a little tender if I push on it. At first I thought of a clot, but it is not warm. I have MS thought I bumped it but don t remember doing that. Any ideas? Teresa

A bump or a lump, slow growth and pain only on applying pressure suggests a benign cause, probably a lipoma or neurofibroma. It can be left alone or removed if it causes discomfort.
