I have a lump on my left leg. I don't have one on my right. The lump is hard. It is above my knee. I t is NOT painful at all. It is about 1 1/2 wide and 1 1/2 long.

What should I do or should I be consernd? :confused:

Get an appointment with a family doctor. It could be a calcium deposit but you will not know that until you see your doctor. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Yeah it could very well be nothing. But always, always consult your doc. No matter what anyone posts here, always go see a doctor about any medical condition.

I agree with the other answers. It may be nothing, or it could be a pilar or sebaceous cyst. The only way your going to know for sure is if you see a doctor. The doctor will perform an X-ray to determine the cause of your condition.

Hi,
As other answers have said, see a doctor.
It could be a tumor of some type, or might just be an oily skin deposit.
Seeing a doctor will give you a "peace of mind" about it, and will let you know what it is, and if it needs any type of treatment. I do wish you the very best.
