Can Lump On Foot Be Calcified Cyst?
I had a small calcified cyst removed from my arm a couple of years ago, I now have notice a tiny little lump on foot, could this be another calcified cyst (i.e. once you've had one does that mean you are prone to them)? As of right now the little lump is not affecting me in any way, do I need to get to a doctor soon or should I not bother until when/if it hurts? I am 30, 5'8" 130lbs

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have sebaceous cyst or dermoid cyst or some soft tissue lesion. You should go for excision biopsy of that lump. Then if needed take further 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.
