If : If you don't like it, then having it removed is worth considering. You should call an orthopedic or plastic surgeon in your area for an evaluation and discuss the pros and cons of having surgery to remove it. Remember, an evaluation is just that - it doesn't force you into anything. If you don't know who to call, then call your primary care doctor for a recommendation. Good luck!

Go for it: If it is really embarrassing for you, have it done. It is an operation, but not a very major one. It can actually be a little tricky, so have it done by someone who has a lot of experience with it.
