Hard, Movable Lump In Hip Bone. Painful When Touched
Hi there! I have a small, hard, movable lump located to the upper right of my left hip bone . It s hard to distinguish the actual size but it seems a little tubular. The skin around it does not dimple when pressure is applied, and there is not always pain when touched, but it does appear/feel to be moving and/or growing slowly.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The slowly growing lump near the knee is worrisome. You need to get an MRI scan of the area done to know the origin and extent of the lump for proper treatment.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Regards,
