I would have a doctor check it out. It is probably nothing serious because a cancerous lump that size would take longer than a couple of days to form but still I would have it checked.

hey there, you know if anything shows up on your body that you can't understand it's always best to go to the doctor. We get all kinds of things once in awhile that can scare us and nothing is better than having answers. So my best suggestion is to get to the doctor if you can afford it and get it checked out. Be persistent and remember you are hiring them for a service so don't take "no " for an answer and don't let them get away with being vague. Find out for sure and let them know you need them to do their best!

It is possible that you injured it without knowing ...it's always safer to go to the doctor and have it checked out if you are concerned and you must be because you posted this question. No one can tell you what it is with out seeing it and that's why you should go to the doctor for you peace of mind.

Maybe a staph infection... Or maybe your a sleepwalker and accidently bumped into something, happened to me I have a sprained ankle to prove it..
My wife seems to think its a sebaceous cyst and you need to have it lanced..Shes a Nurse

go to the doc. it could be a blood blister or something worse. tell the doc everything you know about the timeline and progression.
i don't know for sure what it is, but it should be addressed.

hmmm. you might have hit it on something and forgot.Or it could be a spider bite. If it doesn't go away soon I would go to the doctor.

If you don't remember injuring it and it isn't getting better you should have it checked.
