worried about very hard pea sized lump above the back of my right knee

hey guys,I have recently found a very hard pea sized lump ,it doesn't move and is not painful,,its about 3 inches above the back of my right knee,to the right, just under the skin,this feels different to the bakers cyst I've had previously directly at the back of my left knee,should I be worried? 

  • Hello debzmoo and welcome to Cancer Chat,

    It can be natural to worry when you find a lump but the best thing to do is to see your doctor, if you haven't already. It might be nothing, but it's important that this is looked at so you can be certain about the lump. It's a difficult question to answer as no one on the forum can diagnose you, so definitely book an appointment.

    There is also a lot of guidance on talking to your doctor on our website. This includes tips for appointments and beyond, which could help if you're unsure of how to approach the conversation. You can refer to this information anytime and I hope it will be useful.

    Best wishes to you,
