Hi, doctors are not in favour of removing it means it might not be that serious, or you might not be explaining your problem clearly.
It appears to be the lipoma on some of the nerves on the back. or a grouth on the nerves. You explain your doctor about the range of pain. Then they will take decision comparing to the risk of doing the operation.
Thank you.
