General & Family Physician,  's  Response
These features are formed normally on the ankle. And they do have cosmetic implication specially for ladies. May be it can be a callous or hyperkeratosis but thing you are suggesting isn't an anomaly. It develops due to pressure on the bony feature of skin. Still you are already using appropriate medication for it.
