What Causes A Persistent Lump On The Calf?
Hi, I am a 50 year old female. About a year ago I noticed a lump on the left calf. It is sitting on the muscle, so I thought it is only a lump that will go away in time. Well, a year later and it is still there. if I touch it feels like a muscle pain. I am a bit worried. Any ideas for me? Thanks!

Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
As you have lump from 1 year, I advise you to get FNAC done for exact typing of the lump.based on your description I think it is lipoma, which is a benign fat tumour.
Thank you
