I am a 42 year old female. About a month ago, what looks like a mole or a wart, popped out of my knee. At first, it didn't bother me. Now the center has become soft, pliable and painful. If I brush my leg against a desk or wall, it really hurts! It looks like a small hill under my clothes. Should I be concerned?

 Hi Mswillms,
I would suggest you have your doctor take a look at this. The description doesn't make me particularly suspicious of cancer although this is a possibility. It may also be an infection beneath the skin that could require antibiotics to clear up.
Best wishes.
