A member asked:
Foot x-rayed from injury. no break, but report: a small lucent lesion likely an enchondroma. what tests should i ask for? seeing ortho dr friday.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Endochondroma: No problem as a rule. Occurs in hands and feet. Usually found incidentally on xray for something else. If it does not grow or cause you pain then it is not a problem. If it does it should probably be checked again by podiatrist or orthopedic MD.
