What Does A Raised Red Mass On Knuckles Indicate?

I have a raised red mass about 1/2 inch in diameter (almost perfectly round) on the knuckle of my left hand next to my thumb. It does not hurt to the touch, but it appears to have raised edges on 2 of the sides...can you speculate what this might be as it does not look like skin cancer.

did you have any trauma to that finger.
My advise is to get it removed and get a biopsy done to know what exactly it is.
