What Causes Painful Lump On Anterior Thigh?

I noticed in about 8 months ago a pea sized lump in my anterior thigh that was painful. It has increased in size to a quarter size and I have recently noticed two other spots, one above and one below the first spot, but they are on my lateral thigh and they are shaped more like the length of a medium sized thumb. My leg aches a lot but there is no swelling to my ankles. I am concerned and a little scared. Please advise.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some soft tissue tumor like lipoma, neurofibroma or dermatofibroma. Or it can be some skin adenexal tumor or lesion. You should go for biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
