<s>[INST] Hi. Last month I appeared to have 2 bruises one on either ankle and they have not gone. However, a week or so ago I noticed they were not bruises but almost like lumps. only a few days ago they started getting painful. Not sure what to do. Any advice? [/INST] Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of ankle lump, I would come up with only one and one possibility that is a sebaceous cyst or folliculitis! Nothing to worry about this and try not to get infected there again and again! You might need to take oral antibiotics for these...I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. </s>
