Painful lump on the leg under the skin. Painful lump under the skin on the leg: should it be treated or will it resolve on its own? Bumps on the face

The appearance of subcutaneous lumps on the human body can be due to several reasons: hematomas due to injury, changes in connective tissue, blockage of the skin glands. The greatest danger is posed by malignant tumors. Benign tumors are similar in appearance, but with careful examination at home they can be identified. Treatment of such cones is done by removing them.

Lump under the skin - what is it?

Subcutaneous bumps can be several types of formations:

1. Benign tumors:
   • atheroma;
   • hygroma;
   • lipoma;
   • fibroxanthoma;
   • hematoma;
   • cyst.
2. Malignant (cancerous) tumors:
   • lymphoma;
   • metastases of cancerous tumors of internal organs.

The formation of dark red bumps with a blue tint on the inflamed area of ​​the skin indicates the appearance of a boil. Most benign tumors are harmless to humans and are removed surgically. In any case, if formations appear under the skin, you need to contact a dermatologist to diagnose accurate diagnosis and to exclude a malignant process.

Dermatofibroma

Dermatofibroma (fibroxanthoma) most often appears in adults on the arms, legs and body. The most typical locations are the following:

• shins;
• soles of feet;
• forearms;
• torso;
• head;
• palms of hands

Dermatofibroma

Externally, this intradermal benign node looks like a button, has a dense consistency, and when pressed it hurts. The size of the cone is 0.3-1 cm in diameter. It blends in color with the surrounding tissues, but is clearly palpable. Sometimes the skin over the ball is pigmented (due to constant trauma) or has a brownish color. The form of formation is of two types - in the form of a tubercle or depressed. The surface is shiny or covered with scales. When damaged by scratching or shaving, crusts form.

A characteristic sign of dermatofibroma is that it sinks when squeezed between two fingers, as the lump goes deeper under the skin. Usually the bumps appear in large quantities, but some people have several dozen of them, located chaotically in different locations. Degeneration into a cancerous tumor does not occur; the lump is only cosmetic defect.

Dermatofibroma appears as a result of the proliferation of connective tissue. The reasons for its formation are unknown. It grows slowly over several years, but may remain unchanged for many years. In some cases, the formations resolve on their own. If the tumor is constantly injured or represents a serious cosmetic defect, then it is removed either surgically or with liquid nitrogen. It should be noted that after excision with a scalpel, a scar remains.



Hygroma

If a lump has formed in the joint area, then one can suspect the presence of a hygroma - a cyst with liquid contents. Most often, hygroma appears in the following places:

• wrist joint on the hand;
• shins;
• phalanges of fingers;
• feet

Hygroma

Lumps can form in the area of ​​any joints, including the sternocostal joint. Risk factors include the following:

• monotonous loads on the joint;
• hereditary predisposition;
• superficial location of the tendon sheath;
• frequently recurring injuries;
• incomplete removal of the hygroma membrane during a previous operation;
• inflammatory diseases joints.

Hygroma can be identified by the following signs:

• characteristic location near the tendons;
• increase after physical activity;
• mobility relative to surrounding tissues;
• slow growth;
• unchanged color;
• in some cases - peeling and redness of the surface of the lump;
• in the area of ​​a large tumor - numbness and tingling;
• in advanced cases – pain.

Accurate diagnosis of this benign formation is carried out using ultrasound. Hygroma is not dangerous, but it causes discomfort and leads to limited mobility. The bumps should be removed surgically (this is done with local anesthesia), since the contents of the cyst, when damaged, spill into the surrounding tissues and cause inflammation. If a secondary bacterial infection occurs, then suppuration begins. Self-removal of hygroma by squeezing it out is ineffective, since a capsule remains under the skin, which over time fills with liquid again. It is also possible to divide the capsule with the formation of many daughter hygromas. With a decrease in physical activity, a temporary decrease or complete disappearance of the hygroma occurs.



Lipoma

Lipoma (wen, lipoblastoma) is a benign tumor of the subcutaneous fat layer of tissue. The formation of wen is caused by several predisposing factors:

• genetic inheritance (familial lipomatosis);
• liver diseases;
• endocrine diseases (diabetes mellitus, malfunction of the thyroid gland, pituitary gland and others);
• obesity;
• polyps in the intestines;
• helminthic infestations;
• impaired kidney function, leading to the accumulation of toxins in the body;
• frequent injury to the skin area;
• constant mechanical friction.

Lipoma

Most often, lipomas form there, there is a fatty layer:

• back of the neck;
• stomach;
• hips;
• area under the jaw;
• collarbone (often with pulmonary tuberculosis);
• hands;
• legs;
• back;
• axillary region;
• breast;
• face;
• buttocks.

In more in rare cases Wen appears on the palms. Lipomas can also form in the tissues of the knee joint against the background of chronic inflammatory processes. Characteristic Features lipomas are:

• soft consistency;
• unchanged skin color;
• round form;
• when palpating, you can feel the lobules;
• absence of inflammatory processes;
• good mobility relative to surrounding tissues.

Usually the size of the lipoma does not exceed 2-3 cm, but in rare cases it reaches significant sizes. When growing in muscle tissue she becomes painful and inactive. Pain also appears if the wen is massive and compresses nerve endings.In most people, wen under the skin appears as single formations, but there are two hereditary forms multiple rashes:

• Madelung syndrome, in which lipomas are located in large numbers symmetrically and can merge with each other. The disease is more often registered in men. Already in adolescence there are many small wen(up to several hundred), which grow slowly over several years.
• Dercum's disease (or morbid obesity) is the formation of many painful lipomas on the limbs and other parts of the body in middle-aged girls and women.

Multiple lipomas

Wen removal is performed surgically; self-squeezing is not recommended, since the remaining capsule under the skin leads to the process of lipoma formation resuming. Under the influence of injuries, a lipoma can degenerate into a malignant tumor.

Atheroma

Atheromas are cysts sebaceous gland and there are two types, externally not different from each other:

• congenital in nature with abnormal embryonic development;
• acquired, appearing as a result of blockage of the excretory duct of the sebaceous gland. Such atheromas can be a complication of acne.

Congenital atheromas are numerous. The localization of the cones is as follows:

• acquired - on the scalp, shoulder, back and face;
• congenital - on the face, neck and scrotum.

External signs of atheroma:

• round form;
• size 0.5-4 cm or more;
• elastic consistency;
• painlessness;
• slow increase;
• color – flesh or yellowish;
• when squeezed, a thick milky mass with an unpleasant odor is released from the cone;
• mobility when palpated.



Lipomas are very similar to atheromas. External differences are as follows:

• lipomas are soft to the touch, atheromas are harder;
• the skin over the lipoma can be easily folded;
• in atheroma, the skin is “fused” with the formation;
• lipomas do not fester.

Inside the atheromas are sebum, breakdown products of sebaceous cells and keratin protein. If the atheroma becomes infected, then it suppurates, it becomes painful and spontaneously opens. In rare cases, malignant transformation occurs. Elimination of atheroma is carried out only surgically, and it is important to remove the entire capsule of the formation so that a relapse does not occur.

Hematoma

Hematoma is one of the most common forms of formation of compactions under the skin. An “ordinary” bump that occurs upon impact is a hematoma. Signs of this subcutaneous formation are the following:

• swelling at the site of formation;
• soreness;
• compaction;
• color - from bright red to purple, color is heterogeneous.

A hematoma occurs when blood vessels burst under the skin. Blood flows into subcutaneous tissue, and the skin itself remains intact. Injury occurs as a result of bruise, squeezing, pinching, or impact. The size of the lump depends on how many vessels are damaged.



The lump appears within 12-24 hours after the injury. Small hematomas resolve on their own. Extensive hematomas require surgical treatment. “First aid” for a hematoma is cold compress(ice, cold water bottle, etc.). Cold stops internal subcutaneous bleeding and helps reduce swelling. For extensive hematomas, you should consult a doctor.

Skin cyst

A cyst is an intradermal or subcutaneous cavity, the walls of which are lined epithelial cells.Its content depends on the location of the formation:

• face (on the forehead, cheekbones);
• torso;
• hands;
• scalp area;
• oral cavity;
• breast;
• upper back;
• scrotum and other parts of the body.

Cysts appear as a result of blockage of the skin glands (sweat, sebaceous, hair follicles), injuries, or are congenital. The external signs of this formation are as follows:

• size 0.5-5 cm;
• round form;
• elasticity when feeling;
• the skin over the bump is the same color as in other areas;
• thin wall;
• clear boundaries of the bump;
• hair loss in the area of ​​the large cyst;
• no pain.



When a bacterial infection occurs, redness occurs, signaling the onset of inflammatory process. The contents of the cyst getting into the subcutaneous layer lead to inflammation, the cyst enlarges and becomes very painful. The appearance of a cyst at the base of the nail leads to its death. Therefore, it is necessary to remove it surgically by excision and drainage of the cavity contents.

Lymphoma

The manifestation of lymphoma, a malignant disease of the lymphatic tissue, begins with skin rashes of various forms that resemble dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, lichen planus and other dermatological diseases. These rashes can exist on the skin for years and disappear for a while. At the last, third stage of the disease, tumors appear in the form of bumps, which evolve on the site of other types of rashes or appear on healthy areas of the skin. Last symptom is a sign of metastasis. Bumps most often appear on the following areas of the body:

• on the face;
• on the neck;
• on the elbow;
• in the inguinal folds.

The bumps may resolve on their own, but this does not mean the end of the malignant process in humans. Signs of lymphoma are the following.

The formation of bunions on the legs is a common phenomenon. Sometimes a person does not attach any importance to this education. A visit to the doctor is postponed until the moment when the lump begins to rapidly increase in size, hurt when walking, and turn red.

Lumps on feet

These formations can be multiple, single, soft, or hard to the touch. They can be benign or malignant. In the absence of timely diagnosis and treatment, subcutaneous bumps can cause inflammation and suppuration. The favorite place is the shin.

According to statistics, every seventh inhabitant of the planet has pain in the legs. People do not attach importance to this, citing a bruise and visiting a doctor in advanced stages. Let's look at the main seals that appear on the skin and have negative consequences.

Corns

A very common disease that is accompanied by painful sensations. Corns occur as a result of keratinization of dead skin and its hardening. Reasons: incorrect selection of shoes, which causes the foot to feel discomfort, excessive sweating feet, flat feet, excess weight and so on.

By appearance they can be flat or concave, with a shaft of yellow-brown color. This area of ​​skin is almost completely devoid of sensitivity. If the skin is excessively dry, cracks may occur. The lack of drug therapy can trigger the process of foot deformation.

Corn

Very often they can form on the legs. They are easy to distinguish from corns, because they have clear contours and a rounded shape. Based on the type of calluses, they are classified into dry and wet. The reasons for the appearance may be wearing uncomfortable shoes, small in size, new shoes. A wet callus looks like a raised area above the skin with fluid inside. When it is damaged, fluid or blood is released from the wound. This phenomenon is very dangerous because big risk introduction of infection into the wound.

It is prohibited to cut or open seals at home.

If these manipulations are indicated, they are carried out only in a hospital setting.

Warts

in the photo there are bumps on the legs under the skin

They refer to benign formations, which appear in the fleshy areas of the body. Warts are thought to be caused by infection with the papilloma virus. Occurs when there is a decrease protective functions body. In appearance, a wart is very similar to a callus, but unlike the latter, the skin is characterized by increased roughness. A wart gives the sensation of having a stone in the shoe, which causes pain when pressed.

The superficial wart strain is not contagious to humans. Cases of transmission of the virus from person to person are quite rare. Favorable conditions for the development of the virus are a humid, warm environment. Any damage allows the virus access to the body. When it will manifest itself is a matter of time and condition immune system.

Preventive measures

To prevent an annoying and painful nodule from appearing on your body, you must adhere to a number of recommendations:

• selection of comfortable, proportionate shoes made from high-quality and natural materials;
• select shoes with the most comfortable instep; too high or low a heel negatively affects the health of the foot;
• for increased comfort you can use orthopedic insoles that support the foot in the correct position;
• will cope with rubbing, and silicone inserts will help reduce impacts on the foot;
• everyday hygiene procedures which include washing feet, baths, removing rough skin with a stone;
• At night, lubricate your feet with a rich cream and put on cotton socks;
• cold and hot shower.

Experts say that moderate physical activity has a beneficial effect on the condition of the legs. It's useful to do hiking, cycling, jogging, skiing and skating. Performing special gymnastic exercises. Self-massage has a beneficial effect on the condition of the feet and helps improve blood circulation.

It is very useful to walk barefoot on the grass, especially in the morning, when the grass is still covered in dew. Any injuries, microcracks and cuts must be carefully treated with antiseptics. After all, this is a direct path for infections to enter the body. If, however, a lump appears on the leg, it is necessary not to delay and begin treatment. Constant monitoring of your health will help you cope with many problems.

Sometimes you may see a lump or hard lump under the skin. Most are harmless, but some can be painful and irritating. These bumps can appear on any part of the body.

Most lumps are harmless and are not a cause for concern. However, in rare cases it may be necessary additional diagnostics. This happens when cancerous tumors. Benign balls under the skin have the following signs:

• the compaction grows slowly and not painfully;
• soft consistency;
• located in the superficial or fatty layer of the skin:
• mobile, it can be felt.

On an arm or leg

Most lumps and bumps under the skin are harmless and go away without treatment. But to make a correct diagnosis and eliminate the main causes of their occurrence, you need to consult a doctor as early as possible.

A dense ball on an arm or leg is most often a lipoma (fat), fibroma or cyst.

Lipoma– a relatively soft lump consisting of fatty tissue that grows slowly.

Fibrolipoma or fibrous lipoma is formed from adipose and connective tissue at the same time. The lower the percentage of fat in it, the harder it is.

Fibroma on the toe and sole of the foot

Fibroma– a hard, small subcutaneous lump consisting of connective fibrous tissue.

These are all safe formations that gradually grow slowly.

Cyst is a sac under the skin filled with fluid (usually pus). Its main difference from lipoma and fibroma is that they are located deep under the skin, and the cyst is closer to the surface. All these seals are usually not required compulsory treatment, but sometimes require removal operations.

A lipoma, fibroma or cyst can appear on other parts of the body. In addition to the arms and legs, they often form on the back or chest.

On the face

Reasons for the appearance of lumps on the face that are not related to injury are most likely to be:

• Pig ( parotitis) – viral infection, mainly affecting children. Lumps will be associated with inflammation of the lymph nodes of the lower part of the face;
• Allergic reaction – causes swelling in the deep layers of the skin;
• A tooth abscess can lead to swelling in the jaw area.

Enlarged lymph nodes due to mumps (left) and facial swelling due to a tooth infection (right)

In the groin, thighs and buttocks

The appearance of hard lumps in the vagina, on inside thighs and buttocks can be caused by the following factors:

• inflamed inguinal lymph nodes, which is a sign of infection;
• cyst - a harmless formation filled with fluid;
• an abscess is a painful collection of pus;
• genital warts - are sexually transmitted infections and are fleshy growths;
• hanging moles or warts.

Hanging mole (A), abscess (B) and genital warts with HPV (C)

On the knuckle of a finger or wrist

A subcutaneous hard ball or lump on the wrist or finger joint is most often a hygroma, a type of cyst that forms around the joints and tendons.

Hygroma (synovyl cyst) is a fairly soft, smooth ball filled with a dense jelly-like liquid. The causes of its occurrence are unknown, but most often it is associated with aging or damage to joints and tendons.

Hygroma appears near the joints

If the hygroma does not cause pain or anxiety, you can leave it or treat it yourself, but to remove it, you need to visit a dermatologist. Although often after removal, the problem may return over time.

Small hard ball under the skin

A hard ball under the skin may turn out to be a fibrous lipoma - a mobile seal consisting of fat and connective tissue that grows. An ordinary lipoma (fat) consists only of adipose tissue, therefore it is softer. And fibrous is more dense due to connective tissue. Sizes vary from a pea to several centimeters in diameter. Lipomas are safe.

If the ball turns out to be not a lipoma, then most likely it will be a cyst - a sac under the skin filled with pus. They are very similar, but important difference– the cyst will be closer to the surface and usually goes away without treatment.

Large flat lump under the skin

A large lump that appears under the skin causes concern for most people; many consider it a sign of cancer. To minimize complications, you need to undergo a series of tests that will help determine the cause of the appearance of such seals.

If the tumor turns out to be malignant, then a course of radiation and chemical therapy or surgery to remove cancerous tissue is required.

A hard, painful area under the skin

Trauma or infection may cause sudden appearance dense painful area. Moreover, during infection, the skin around the seal will be red and hot to the touch, and the injury is accompanied by swelling and hemorrhage. At improper treatment The wound can become infected and then redness and increased temperature will be added.

Hard balls under the skin due to ingrown hairs

Under certain conditions, not all of the hair is shaved off; part of it remains under the skin and cannot break through, so it bends and grows inside the hair follicle. This is how ingrown hairs appear, they cause inflammation, pain and form small hard balls in the shaving area. Most often this is the back of the head and area. Sometimes an ingrown hair can become enlarged (cyst) after infection.

Ingrown hairs

Anyone who shaves, uses tweezers, or uses wax for hair removal may experience similar problems. Such “bumps” often go away on their own, but they can also sometimes be helped when the hair is very close to the surface.

The appearance of a dense ball on the skin after an insect bite

Bug or spider bites can also cause swelling and hard bumps on the skin. Most insects are harmless, but there are a few poisonous individuals whose stings penetrate deep into human skin and their venom is dangerous.

Signs of a poisonous spider bite:

• severe pain that begins about an hour after the bite;
• abdominal cramps (from a black widow bite);
• heavy sweating;
• swelling and fever in severe cases.

Pimples have turned into hard balls

Pimples are places where the skin becomes inflamed. They appear when dead skin cells, sebum and bacteria clog the pores, forming hard balls. Acne (acne) is a common problem among teenagers, but can appear at any other age. Bacteria multiply quickly under the skin and this leads to the appearance of new acne.

There are acne different types: pimples, papules, pustules, cysts or nodules, so there is no one way to treat acne. In severe cases of the disease, tablets and local treatment are prescribed.

If the acne is large, then laser and phototherapy, drainage and steroid injections are performed to reduce swelling.

Lump under the skin after vaccination

Vaccination – reliable way protection against infections that do not cause serious side effects. But some children experience various symptoms after vaccinations, such as:

• fever within 2-3 days after vaccination;
• redness at the injection site;
• a dense area at the injection site (in this case, a cold compress will help);
• a rash in the form of red dots may cover the child from head to toe, but it is harmless and will go away within a week;
• in rare cases, the entire vaccination area may become red, swollen, and hot (pain reliever and hydrocortisone ointment will help).

Redness, various rashes on the skin cause inconvenience and look unaesthetic. If ball-shaped seals form under the skin different shapes, gradually increase in size - there is a serious reason to see a doctor. A lump on the calf of the leg is a clear symptom of problems in the body.

Such a ball can be easily felt; in severe cases, it protrudes strongly under the skin. Usually the lump looks mobile, dense, and not harmless. Becomes serious reason for concern, a harbinger of the development of a serious illness.

Primary causes of a lump on the calf

The calf muscles in humans are located at the back of the leg in the lower leg area. Participate in flexion of the foot. Often pain of various types occurs in this part of the leg. The pain appears during movement and becomes worse when running. Pain in the calf usually signals a person about internal problems in the body.

The muscles in the calf are responsible for the condition of cardio-vascular system. The more developed they are, the better the heart works. The formation of a blood clot that breaks off in the calf (often due to alcohol consumption, smoking, or blood stagnation) is fatal. Pain in the calf muscle is caused by tumors affecting bones, blood vessels and muscle fibers. The tumor forms in the soft tissues and occurs inside the calf.

Lump on the bone

Reasons for the appearance of a lump on the calf:

Mechanical injuries of the lower extremities. Gout. Syphilis. Cystic formation. Chronic rheumatism. Inflammation in the lymph nodes.

Diagnostics will help determine the cause of the formation under the skin.

Secondary causes of a lump on the calf

A compaction under the skin in one or both calves also indicates neoplasms that can be benign or malignant. The formations can grow in adipose tissue, this is typical for lipomas, in cartilage tissue(fibroma), muscle, bone. At first they do not cause any inconvenience, but gradually the lumps become painful and increase in size. A lump under the skin indicates a malignant lesion of the limbs.

A benign formation in the form of a lump is called osteoma. Often formed in bone tissue shin, develops slowly, does not develop into cancer. Osteoma is often diagnosed in children and young people under 20 years of age. The formation is characterized by pain due to pressure on the vessels and nerve nodes. Osteoma is removed surgically. There are two types of osteomas: connective tissue tumors and bone tumors.

Calf osteoma

Lumps in the soft tissue of the legs indicate a lipoma. The main location is the lower leg and calf muscle, ankle. Lipoma is characterized by the proliferation of adipose tissue, which occurs due to a violation hormonal levels or heredity. Such neoplasms under the skin are usually soft to the touch, difficult to notice, and do not cause discomfort. When palpated, the bumps move and do not cause pain. Lipomas are eliminated using surgical intervention after histological examination. Medicines will not help with this type of tumor. Lipomas are removed using a laser. A lump under the skin sometimes indicates the presence of a fibroma - a tumor that typically grows into fibrous and connective tissues. Formations appear due to injury or inflammation. Fibroids of the legs develop without symptoms, rarely cause complications, and do not require special treatment. They can cause redness of the skin; the structure of the lump is dense and nodular. If it occurs not in the area of ​​the calf muscle, but on the ankle, the skin will change color from a matte shade to purple and will increase in size. Treatment with liquid nitrogen is recommended.

Traditional methods of treating lumps on the calf

If a lump appears on the calf of the leg, treatment is prescribed only after examining the body and diagnosing the neoplasm. Depending on the stage and nature of the formation, the doctor will prescribe a course of correct therapy. If the formation is benign, it is applied drug treatment, laser, surgery.

Co malignant lump Under the skin, things are much more complicated. The focus is affected by radiological methods, radiation therapy, which kills cancer cells, preventing them from spreading. Use the method surgical intervention, chemotherapy. When carried out diagnostic examination education from an oncologist, a course of cytostatic drugs is prescribed. Chemotherapy is necessary to neutralize and prevent the occurrence of tumor mutations. The course of medication and chemotherapy is strictly individual.

Any disease of the legs is dangerous and can cause severe consequences for the body. Appropriate treatment prevents the disease from developing and relapse. If after the first successful treatment bumps, a repeated malignant tumor has appeared in the calf muscle, the doctor will prescribe anti-cancer therapy - a hormonal course to restore the correct biological balance in the body together with taking bisphosphonates. Neoplasms of various types and diseases of the legs can usually be cured in time, taking into account that it turned out to be complex and individual. A lump in the lymph nodes of the leg is not considered a separate disease, but a symptom of a serious disorder in the body. It is strictly forbidden to apply hot compresses to the legs where the tumor is located.

Traditional therapy for a lump on the calf consists of a set of measures and techniques, depending on the picture of the disease:

Drug therapy. Radiation therapy. Laser. Cryotherapy.

Foot treatment

Radioactive. Chemotherapy. Minimally invasive surgical intervention.

Traditional methods of treating lumps on the calf

The use of home methods for treating a lump on the calf of the leg cannot completely eliminate the disorder, but it will alleviate the patient’s condition, and in combination with therapy it will become a good helper. If the neoplasm is malignant, it is better not to resort to self-treatment. In any case, before using unconventional methods, you need to consult with your doctor! Massage of the tumor, strong friction of the sore spot, and hot compresses are prohibited.

A good method for treating bumps is regular soap. Grate the soap, knead the resulting shavings and massage (not aggressively) the skin. Then wash it off and draw an iodine grid in place of the bump. The method is used daily for a month. Relieves pain and severe inflammation. Potatoes are an effective folk remedy that has proven itself in the fight against various diseases. It is necessary to peel a large potato tuber and grate it until it turns into a watery paste. The mass is applied to the affected area, and a cling film wrap is made on top. It is advisable to make a potato compress daily until a positive result occurs.

Treatment with potatoes

Propolis helps with bumps under the skin. Rub the product in your palm until soft and apply to the affected area. Secure the top loosely with a dry cloth. At home, make a special ointment. To prepare you will need a raw egg and vinegar. Place the egg in a transparent jar, pour table vinegar on top and leave for several weeks in a dark place. The shell will soften and should be removed. Mash the egg with one tablespoon of lard (rendered) and turpentine ointment - 10 g. Apply the resulting ointment to the skin every other day, then make an iodine net. Infusions of medicinal herbs that have a diuretic effect (birch buds, horsetail, lingonberries) should be used internally and make cold compresses. Prepare an ointment yourself: 3% iodine - one part, lemon juice - two parts and 2 aspirin tablets, mix and knead to a paste. Apply the resulting product to the affected area of ​​the skin and wrap it with film on top. You need to use the ointment for three days in a row, then take a break for a week.

It is not recommended to take if a lump is detected hot shower and a bath, sunbathing, visiting baths and solarium. You should not act aggressively, mechanically on the subcutaneous lump, knead it, or apply heating pads. It is better to use folk remedies under the supervision of a doctor. You should review your diet and reduce stressful situations.

Symptoms of a lump on the calf

Early symptoms of a lump on the calf of the leg are distinguished by the characteristic sensations:

Pain in lower limbs. At night painful sensations become more acute. Various disorders in the functioning of the joints. Difficulty moving. Brittle bones. General malaise. Increased body temperature. Weight loss. Fatigue. If a tumor has formed, the pain radiates to the heel.

If symptoms occur, it is important not to delay seeking medical attention and treatment. You should reduce physical activity and, if possible, get rid of bad habits that become a factor in the development of diseases.

Various formations under the skin: bumps, balls, compactions, tumors - this is a common problem that almost every person faces. In most cases, these formations are harmless, but some of them require emergency treatment.

Lumps and lumps under the skin can develop on any part of the body: face, arms and legs, back, abdomen, etc. Sometimes these formations are hidden in the folds of the skin, on the scalp, or grow so slowly that for a long time remain invisible and are discovered when they reach large sizes. Benign neoplasms of the skin and soft tissues usually proceed asymptomatically.

Lumps, seals, causing pain or discomfort are more often a consequence of infection. They may be accompanied by an increase in general or local temperature. The skin over them usually turns red. Associated disorders occur: general malaise, headache, weakness, etc. When timely treatment Such formations usually pass quickly.

Much less common are malignant neoplasms of the skin and underlying tissues, which can be palpated or noticed on your own. You need to be able to recognize these diseases in time and consult a doctor as soon as possible. Below we outline the most common skin lesions that may cause concern.

Lipoma (wen)

Lumps under the skin most often turn out to be lipomas. These are benign, completely safe tumors from fat cells. Lipoma can be felt under the skin as a soft formation with clear boundaries, sometimes with a bumpy surface. The skin over the lipoma is of normal color and density, easily folded.

Most often, lipomas appear on the scalp, neck, armpits, chest, back and thighs. When they reach large sizes, they can cause pain by squeezing neighboring organs or muscles. Find out more about how to get rid of lipoma.

Atheroma

Atheroma is often confused with lipoma, also called a wen. In fact, it is a cyst, that is, stretched sebaceous gland, which is clogged excretory duct. The contents of the atheroma - sebum - gradually accumulate, stretching the capsule of the gland.

To the touch it is a dense, round formation with clear boundaries. The skin over the atheroma cannot be folded; sometimes the surface of the skin takes on a bluish color and you can see a point on it - a clogged duct. Atheroma can become inflamed and fester. If necessary, it can be removed by a surgeon.

Hygroma

This is a dense, inactive ball under the skin, which most often appears on the wrist in the form of a lump. Hygroma does not hurt or cause harm, it causes only cosmetic discomfort, and when located in rarer places, for example, on the palm, it can interfere with daily work. With an accidental blow, the hygroma can disappear, since it is an accumulation of fluid between the fibers of the tendon and bursts under mechanical stress. Read more about hygroma and its treatment.

Nodules on the joints

Various joint diseases: arthritis and arthrosis are often accompanied by the appearance of small, hard, immobile nodules under the skin. Similar formations in the elbow joint are called rheumatoid nodules and are typical for rheumatoid arthritis. Nodules on the extensor surface of the joints of the fingers - Heberden's and Bouchard's nodes accompany deforming osteoarthritis.

Gouty nodes - tophi, which are accumulations of uric acid salts and grow on the joints of people who have suffered from gout for many years, can reach a significant size.

Deserves special attention subcutaneous lump on the foot - a hard growth of the joint of the big toe, which is accompanied by valgus deformity - curvature of the toe. The bunion on the foot gradually grows, interferes with walking and creates difficulties in choosing shoes. Find out about treatment hallux valgus deformity feet.

Hernia

It feels like a soft protrusion under the skin, which can appear during exercise and disappear completely when lying down or at rest. A hernia forms in the navel area, a postoperative scar on the abdomen, in the groin, on inner surface hips. The hernia may be painful when palpated. Sometimes you can push it back in with your fingers.

A hernia is formed internal organs abdomen, which are squeezed out through weak spots in the abdominal wall during elevation intra-abdominal pressure: when coughing, lifting heavy objects, etc. Find out whether a hernia can be cured using traditional methods, and why it is dangerous.

Enlarged lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy)

Most often accompanied colds. Lymph nodes are small round formations that can be felt under the skin in the form of soft elastic balls the size of a pea to a plum, not fused to the surface of the skin.

Lymph nodes are located in groups in the neck, under the lower jaw, above and below the collarbones, in the armpits, in the elbows and knees, in the groin and other parts of the body. These are components of the immune system that, like a filter, pass interstitial fluid through themselves, clearing it of infection, foreign inclusions and damaged cells, including tumor cells.

An increase in the size of the lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy), which become painful when palpated, usually accompanies infectious diseases: sore throat, otitis media, flux, panaritium, as well as wounds and burns. Treatment of the underlying disease leads to a reduction in the node.

If the skin over the lymph node turns red, and palpation becomes sharply painful, the development of lymphadenitis is likely - a purulent lesion of the node itself. In this case, you need to contact a surgeon. Minor surgery may be required, and early treatment can sometimes clear up the infection with antibiotics.

If a dense, tuberous formation is felt under the skin, and the skin above it cannot be folded, the node is likely damaged by a malignant tumor. In this case, consult an oncologist as soon as possible. Read more about other causes of swollen lymph nodes.

Warts, papillomas, condylomas, soft fibromas

All these terms refer to small growths on the skin of various shapes: in the form of a polyp, a mole on a thin stalk, growths in the shape of a cockscomb or cauliflower, a hard nodule or papilla protruding above the surface. These lesions may be yellowish, pale, brown, or flesh-colored and have a smooth or flaky surface. Read more and look at photos of warts and papillomas.

Their causes are different: most often it is a viral infection, mechanical injury, hormonal disorders. Sometimes warts and papillomas grow “out of the blue,” for no apparent reason, and can be located on any part of the body, including the mucous membranes of the genital organs. For the most part, these are harmless growths that cause only cosmetic discomfort or interfere with wearing clothes or underwear. However, the variety of their shapes, colors and sizes does not allow one to independently distinguish a benign wart, condyloma or soft fibroma from malignant diseases skin. Therefore, if a suspicious growth appears on the skin, it is advisable to show it to a dermatologist or oncologist.

Lump in the breast (in the mammary gland)

Almost every woman experiences breast lumps at various times in her life. In the second phase of the cycle, especially on the eve of menstruation, small lumps may be felt in the breasts. Usually, with the onset of menstruation, these formations disappear and are associated with normal change mammary glands under the influence of hormones.

If hardening or peas in the breast are palpable and after menstruation, it is advisable to contact a gynecologist who will examine the mammary glands and, if necessary, prescribe additional research. In most cases, breast formations turn out to be benign; some of them are recommended to be removed, while others can be treated conservatively.

The reason for urgent appeal to the doctor are:

rapid increase in the size of the node; pain in the mammary glands, regardless of the phase of the cycle; the formation does not have clear boundaries or the contours are uneven; over the node there is retracted or deformed skin, an ulcer; there is discharge from the nipple; Enlarged lymph nodes can be felt in the armpits.

If these symptoms are detected, it is advisable to immediately contact a mammologist or, if such a specialist could not be found, an oncologist. Read more about the types of breast lumps and their treatment.

Skin inflammation and ulcers

A whole group of skin lesions may be associated with infection. The most common cause of inflammation and suppuration is the bacterium staphylococcus. The skin in the affected area turns red, swelling and induration of varying sizes appear. The surface of the skin becomes hot and painful to the touch, and overall body temperature may also increase.

Sometimes inflammation quickly spreads across the skin, covering large areas. Such a diffuse lesion is typical for erysipelas(faces). More serious condition- phlegmon is purulent inflammation subcutaneous fat tissue. Focal inflammatory diseases are common: carbuncle and furuncle, which form when damaged hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

Surgeons treat purulent-inflammatory diseases of the skin and soft tissues. If redness, pain and swelling appear on the skin, accompanied by an increase in temperature, you should seek help as soon as possible. On initial stages the problem can be solved with the help of antibiotics, in more advanced cases it is necessary to resort to surgery.

Malignant tumors

Compared to others skin formations malignant tumors are very rare. As a rule, at first a focus of compaction or a nodule appears in the thickness of the skin, which gradually grows. Usually the tumor does not hurt or itch. The surface of the skin may be normal, flaky, crusty, or dark in color.

Signs of malignancy are:

uneven and unclear boundaries of the tumor; enlargement of nearby lymph nodes; fast growth education; adhesion to the surface of the skin, inactivity when palpating; bleeding and ulceration on the surface of the lesion.

A tumor can develop at the site of a mole, like melanoma. It can be located under the skin, like a sarcoma, or at the site of a lymph node - lymphoma. If you suspect malignancy skin, you need to see an oncologist as soon as possible.

This is definitely poison! And regarding the bump on Martin’s leg, it appeared after he bitten by a dog. And from a small ball it grew to the size of a chicken egg.

And I also gave “Fenistil” in drops inside to enhance the effect.
