Just got out of shower and noticed a lump just below my left knee to the otter part! I'm on steroids and was wondering if it's because I'm on steroids that this lump may have appeared? Has anyone else experienced this? Thank you Andrea :) x

If it's soft and not painful it could just be a lipoma, also known as a "fatty lump" because it consists of fat cells, BUT it's always important to get any new lumps checked by your GP.

Agree with all of above Andrea - probably not serious but you must have it checked out by your GP in the first instance. Best wishes x
