Dear Ms XXXXXXX

Based on location and size the lump is not of concern. It could be a benign swelling. Exact diagnosis will depend on clinical examination.

Any sudden increase in size or appearance of pain should be evaluated. Do get a routine assessment by your physician.

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.


Take care
