What Causes Hard Lump On The Lower Left Side Of The Back?
Hello! I am a 19 year old girl and have discovered a hard lump (best way to describe it would be bone hard) on the lower left side of my back. I am lactose intolerant and was in a car crash last year but was cleared by a doctor. I was just wondering what this is and what corse of action (or lack thereof) I could take? I was thinking a possible Epidermoid or sebaceous cyst or a tumor or a lipoma. Just ideas I m no doctor or surgeon obviously haha. So I would love some amount of guidance. Thank you so very much!
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the swelling is hard in consistency then it need to be investigated and best would be CT scan and biopsy till then it can be considered as lipoma but differentiation is must, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
