Should I get this checked?

For about two years. I’ve had a raised lump on my thigh. In July 2024,  I measured it and I’ve just measured again today 4 Jan 2025 and I believe it’s grown very slightly. It’s skin coloured, not itchy or painful. 
May not be remotely connected, but I had stage 3 breast cancer 2006

  • Hi there and thanks for the post

    I am sorry to hear you have a lump on your thigh that is concerning you.

    There could be many reasons for this but if you haven't already you should get your GP to take a look at it, especially if it has changed.

    It could be something as simple as a fatty lump called a lipoma but get the doctor to take a look at it when you can.

    I hope this helps

    Best wishes
