What Causes Painless Lumps On Leg?

I have two lumps on my left leg. One is just below the knee and the other is smaller and at the side of my calf muscle. They do not hurt and are swollen with what feels like liquid inside. I have had them for about 3 months and they seem to be getter bigger. I stopped smoking 4 years ago. I am 44 yrs old. I do have bradycardia and some congenital defects of the heart (but nothing that I understand to be problematice). Can you help please.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some benign cyst like sebaceous cyst, dermoid cyst, ganglion cyst or abscess or some benign soft tissue tumor with cystic degeneration. You should go for ultrasound study and if needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
