A member asked:

Painless, colorless,bb sized bump just under skin? its rock hard but doesnt hurt. i tried to open it and drain it and didnt even bleed. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cyst or skin tumor: Most likely (statistically) to be an epidermal cyst, but it could be one of several types of skin tumor. If it really is "rock hard", let a dermatologist have a look at it and give you a precise diagnosis.
