Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My nephew has what appears a raised rib or lump on the upper left chest region...above where his heart would be. He is otherwise healthy with the occasional nose bleed and doesn t complain of any discomfort or pain. When he was an infant he did have a heart murmur.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, in absence of symptoms this could be nonspecific appearance still it is better to keep eye on this for any changes and incase of some changes like size, shape, color, it need to be investigated, and clinically examined, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
