What Does A Painful Lump On The Back Indicate?

Hello, I'm a 48 yr old woman, 5'2" and approximately 130 lbs. For the past three days I have had a stabbing pain in my left side. When I lay flat on my back I can actually feel a lump/buldge. When pressed causes severe pain. It's like a horrible cramp that will not go away. Any suggestions???

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The painful lump on back indicates infection or inflammation in pre-existing lump as sebaceous cyst, boil or else. I will recommend clinical confirmation with consultant surgeon for best
possible guidelines.
