Hi,
Thank you for your query.
I appreciate your observation and description of the problem. However it is not possible to comment on the growth without a thorough examination and necessary investigations. I suggest that you consult your doctor who may refer her to an orthopedic surgeon, if required.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Regards,
RKK

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Further examination and investigations may be required to comment on the growth.
Post examination your doctor may order a X ray.
There could be several causes for such a growth and its very difficult for me to comment on it.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
