I have a slightly darkened circle of skin on my lower calf that has been there for a couple months. When I rub the area I can feel a lump on the bone underneath the skin. I have an appointment for a physical in September, but I m wondering if this is something I should get checked out sooner since it has been there for so long. It isn t painful. I probably wouldn t have noticed it if the skin wasn t darker.
HI,Welcome to HCM. Based on the facts of your query,In My opinion You should Get opinion of your doctor about the cause of the lump as the treatment would depend on it- Its cause could be-Venous lump with petechial discoloration by leaking venules or capillaries./ or it could be old Sebaceous Cyst / or could be dark neavus mole. Second opinion from a surgeon would resolve the issue by his examination and USG and needed tests. Hope this reply would help you to resolve your health concern and its worry. Welcome for any further query in this regard
