HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It would be best to re book your appointment for the MRI.

Though the lesion may not be cancerous, you would only be able to determine this by imaging.

The MRI would be able to take a detailed look and determine if the lesion would need any further management.

If it is cancerous or large in size to impact on surrounding structures then surgery would be needed.

I hope this helps
