General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Possible issue with callus formation most likely, but clinical examination to rule out tophi formation is a must to proceed further.

If you can provide a photo picture of the lesion, it would be best to delineate the issue in a sounder professional manner.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
