A swelling since many years is unlikely to be cancer. It could be lipoma, fibroma or a ganglion. I would be able to opine better if you send me a clinical photograph of the same. It would be better if you could show the same to a general surgeon. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss this further.
