What Causes Lump In The Solar Plexus After Treatment For Pain?

I was in the hospital w/solar plexus pain in May (ER, one day). I could not eat and lost 10 lbs in 10 days. I had to take narcotics to alleviate the pain. That went away as I forced myself to eat and improved my condition. I never regained the lost weight. They did a CT scan at the time and it was negative. Fast forward to now, July 11. I noticed an approximately 2 X 3 horizontal, not painful, lump just above my solar plexus area. What could this be and why wasn t it seen in the CT scan 2 months ago? I see my PCP on Monday but am nervous about this rapidly grown, undetected lump... Please render an opinion. Thanks. Steve

there can be a number of reasons for such a pain.

Please tell me if you have burning sensation in that area too?

try using half cup of milk when you feel that pain and tell me if it resolves or reduces the pain.

please share the medicines they've given you to use at home and do they help or not.
