I have a small lump on my leg above my knee nearly at my thigh it's not a mole but small and hard and doesn't seem to be going away what could this be?

Bump: It is not possible to make a diagnosis without examining the lump. It could be a dermatofibroma. However strange things often show up on people and sometimes it is necessary to biopsy a spot to know what is causing it. See your doctor or dermatologist to have it evaluated.
