[|Human|] Hello, I am a male 5 10 185lbs, not in grate shape but generally healthy. I just noticed a few minutes ago a visible limp on the side or my right shin.it is about the size of a beer bottle cap. there is no pain. this part of the skin does appear to be lighter than the rest. it is soft to touch and if pressed it goes away like if you press around it you feel muscle but right where it is you can sorta depress it more. any thoughts? thanks
[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. The history suggests - most possible cause could be sailoadenitis (dilated salivary glands - due to any obstruction, calculus, stricture.2. Next possible cause could be lymph nodal enlargement followed by vascular causes, lipomas.3. To assess this a simple investigation -ultrasound scan will help us the nature of the lesion (cystic, solid, vascular), sours of the lesion and where all its extending.4. In case of solid mass FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology to find out the cell type.5.MRI - neck also a good tool - if affordability is not an issue.6. Suggest to see your GP and follow the instructions and get needful investigation and treatment done. Good luck. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
