A member asked:
Small, squishy lump on shin. no pain. if i pull my skin taut it flattens. what could it be?

Lipoma: Fatty tumors can do this. Other things can do this as well so best to keep an eye on it for a few months. If it is enlarging or you develop other signs / symptoms in that area see your doc.
