Suggest Medication For Lump Inside The Ankle
my daughter is 33 weeks pregnant and found a lump on her lower right leg that is 2in x 4in near her inside ankle. Does not have any pain with it and it appears to have an indent above it. Like pitting. She has had it all day and wonders if I should call doctor.

Hi.
Nothing serious, and should not be a cause for concern. If at all she is experiencing pitting edema (swelling of her leg due to fluid retention), then I hope her doctor knows about this. Because this could have to do with her kidney health of blood pressure.
Best wishes.
