[|Human|] Hi, I have a small hard lump on the outside of my left knee, in line with the joint. It doesnt hurt until i knock it and it hasnt changed size or place. It is more visable when the leg is stretched. I have been to see a dr who said there was nothing to worry about but I am still worrying. What do you think it could be?
