What Causes A Bump Above The Foot?

I am a 20 year old male and ive got a small bump the size of a quarter on my bottom left leg above my foot. I skateboard all the time and the metal part of the board hits my bottom legs all the time, but those sores usually hurt when i touch them, this one dont. I googled it and people said young people are prone to having cancer on their legs. Could this be cancer?

Hi,DEAR,Good Evening,Thanks for the query.
Bump cause on your leg above the foot-
is due to the mutliple trauma ...few converting it to Sebaceous cyst? as its painless? or may be a Keloid from the abrasions from skateboard metal part.
-Still as you are worried of cancer-I would advise FNAC Biopsy-which would fix the cause as cancer or not.
Hope this would help you to plan the treatment with your doctor.
Wellcome for any further query in this regard.
Wishing you good health.
Good Night.
