What Causes Lump On Leg?

Hi, When I apply pressure to my right leg I see a small soft lump appear halfway down my right shin on the outer side of the leg. It doesn t hurt and seems to be slightly filled with liquid yet only protrudes a minion amount and is only noticeable when specifically looking for it. Would you have any idea as to what this May be?

thanks for sharing your health concerns with us!

well, it seems that it could be some sebaceous cyst or could be some parasitic cyst also not to worry too much!

if you are worried much an FNAC TEST IS THE BEST WAY TO CONFIRM IT! but not to poke it as it can be infected.........

all the best......!
