How Can This Lump Which Is Dark Brown In Color On My Knee Be Removed ?

Hello, I m a 27 year old female with no history of cancer , but I ve had cysts removed before. I have this dark brown lump on my knee , it s been there for years. It doesn t hurt, it never really has, and it hasn t gotten significantly larger. It s not even completely circular, more of an oval-shape. There used to be a wart near it, which was removed.
