What Does A Irregular Mass On Chest Indicate?
My 15 year old daughter has a firm, irregular shaped mass on the Lt side of her chest. It is at approx. the 3rd or 4th intercostal space. It doesn t move, and is only tender when pressed on. No redness, brusing or signs of infection. We are sched. for an ultra sound in am. What are some, non-cancer Dx I can hope for?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Probably you are suffering from lipoma.

It is a benign collection of fat.
Dont worry it is not a serious thing.
The nly possible treatment is surgical removal,
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
