Had Spinal Fusion Surgery, Circular, Hard Lump Under Skin Of Lower Spine, Hurts When Touched. Treatment?
About 9 years ago I had a spinal fusion surgury on the upper part of my spine. Recently I found a hard lump along my lower spine. It is under the skin , and sort of pops out when I bend over and goes back in when I am standing up straight. It is about an inch long and circular. It only hurts when it is touched directly. What could this possibly be? I cannot visit my orthopedic surgeon anymore because of a change in my insurance.

hi,thank u for the consultation.as your history is not clear like what was your previous diagnosis etc.now it may be a lump but it need to be examined by any expert surgeon or orthopedician.if you are conscious about your health you should not delay or should not wait for any insurance and all.good luck
