Small bone-like Growth!

2015-12-22 17:21:01
Hi. Have a small growth in my arm near my wrist. It's the size of a marble/grape. It's not a boil. It's a semi-hard structure. Doesn't pain at all unless I fall down or press very hard. But feels weird and ppl ask about it all the time. Any idea what it could be? Should I get it treated?
