What Causes Lumps On The Ankle?
I have a small hard lump just above my left ankle and I don t know what it is. I don t have one on my right ankle and I don t think there is much pain but it is hard to tell because I rolled my ankle a few days ago so it s been hurting anyways, but I have had this lump for a few weeks and I have a feeling it is slowly getting bigger.Any idea what it is?

Hi
It could be a cyst arising from joint spaces.
Please get an X ray and Ultrasound of the affected area for a clue.
If it is inconclusive, then MRI should be taken.
If you come back after the report,I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
