Dear All

I'm an extremely anxious 41 year old male and I don't want to cause offence if this seems trivial. Around 3 weeks ago I noticed a small lump (around 1cm) on the toe end of my plantar region by the 3rd metatarsal. I visited an orthopaedic consultant last week who suspected it being a plantar fibroma. He referred me for an MRI which I had yesterday. Towards the end of the scan the radiographers came back in to say that they needed to inject a contrast dye. This was mentioned at the beginning of the scan and has given me additional concern. They stated this was nothing to worry about and was merely routine with any lumps they scan. It just concerned me that this was not mentioned before. It has got my mind racing that this could be something more sinister. I'm just worried!
