I Noticed A Pea Sized Lump In My Stomach, How To Get Rid Of It ?
Hello, I am a 23 year old female. A few months ago I noticed a pea sized lump in my stomach, well under the skin in my fat. I have since noticed several around the body which hurt a bit when they are pressed, especially around my belly button. I have been referred for an ultrasound as I have a lump about the diameter of a 10p, that hasn t grown (has been the same size). I would just like to know if you had any ideas of what they might be? I have other symptoms too like constipation and occasional twinges (down below) I m not due to start my period for another few weeks. Thanks

it may be umbilicus hernia as your suffering from constipation or may be lipoma.
it is very difficult to tell without examination.so better consult doctor who can examine and diagnose accordingly.

Hi welcome to healthcare Magic

USG (ultrasound) of abdomen is will be done.. If necessary they will take biopsy to find the cause.. treatment in all above cases is surgery, excision of the lump....
