A member asked:
Iv had this wart looking growth on my ankle most my life, does anyone know what it is and if it could be cancerous?

Bump: The only way to know what that is would be to see your doctor or dermatologist and have it biopsied. That would not only give your the answer you need but it would remove the bump as well. Hope that helps.
