What Causes Strange Movement On The Left Side Of The Back?
I have worm like movement on the left side of my back..there was a lump but it keep coming and going,it stop when I put antiseptic ointment on it (salvon) but start back after a few minutes,it s on going,so bad I can t sleep at night...plus my stomach is unusually bloated,I am fairly, skinny but tummy protruding out,even when I haven t eaten anything...I had and stomach hernia last year,which contributed to acid reflux.,but don t think it s related.

Hello,
* The issue over back with strange movement can be part of underlying fungal infection most likely.
Kindly get a swab test done for the skin part concerned with such an issue.
The stomach protrusion of tummy may be part of the excess of subcutaneous fat pads which gives such appearance and ultrasound examination of the same would be of much help in this concern.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
