I WENT TO SURGERY OPD AND GOT CHECKED & TEACHER TOLD ME NOT TO WORRY AND ORDERED A USG FOR SAFETY. ON USG IT WAS AN ILL DEFINED 7 mm�14 mm HYPOECHOIC LESION ON SUBCUTANEOUS PLANE. DOCTOR TOLD ME NOT TO WORRY & NOTHING IS THERE BUT HE DIDN'T SAY THE EXACT DIAGNOSIS .I ALSO WENT FOR FNAC BUT IT COULDN'T BE DONE AS NO DEFINITE NODULE IS PRESENT. IT IS 3 YRS NOW AND NO PAIN, SKIN CHANGE ,AND NO EVIDENT ELEVATION IT IS UNCHANGED FOR 3-4 YRS. I WAS JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW WHAT IS THE EXACT DIAGNOSIS? OR WHY IT IS HYPOECHOIC?(SOMETIMES I GET WORRIED SO WANT TO KNOW CLEAR CUT ANSWER)

You have to be sure if the lump is still palpable since you are not sure. Get an ultrasound of the area done. If the lump is there the clear cut answer is remove the lump surgically and get a histology report
