What Causes Hard Lump On The Calf Along With A Dent Above It?

Hi I have a hard lump on my calf at the back about midway down it has a dent just above it, it doesn t really hurt unless I have been pressing hard on it when feeling it. I am 27 and am either cycling or walking during the day so not inactive that much apart from at night when I m relaxing. I m not thin but not fat either could it be a fatty lump ? It feels like it s a 50p size or a bit bigger and I m a worrier. Many thanks

Hi,

Get done USG local part of swelling. If something unusual, get done FNAC or histopathological examination. Reports will guide you for further management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
