Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your query, it is good to be cautious.
It is difficult to say what it is without examination, kindly upload the photos to provide you with more specific information.
Has it changed in size?
Where exactly it is present?
As you have mentioned it is there since 10 years, I feel it is less likely to be anything serious.
Get back to us with additional information and pictures.
I'll be glad to help you out.
