What Does A Lump In The Lower Abdomen Indicate?

I just found a lump one my lower abdomen that has no other obvious symptoms, no soreness or redness. It's soft but maybe 1 1/4" diameter, by 1/4" to 38" thick. What may this be and what should I do. It just appeared so I'm hoping it's a temporary condition and be gone semi-soon.
Thanks for this service,
Richard

Hello,

It must be an inguinal hernia. It is reducible at present or Lipoma. If it is a hernia, you have to go for surgery. If lipoma, no need to worry till secondary changes like a sudden increase in size or pain occur.



Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Kantibhai Chelabhai Agaja
