Avatar n tn On my right hand, just above my wrist there's a hard lump in my hand. Everyone says it's cos i'm so skinny & that my bones show but no one else has it there and my mum says she doesnt think that it's a bone. What could this be??
Avatar f tn t do any damage, and are usually painless. They have no conncection whatsoever with cancer or a malignancy. They commonly form on the wrist or forearm. Some people leave them alone and have them for decades. The insides are filled with lymphatic fluid and dark matter (you heard about dark matter in outer space?). Sometimes doctors like them to "mature" a bit before they remove them.
Avatar f tn It is sticking out right about at the wrist. We have taken him to the vet and the lump is very hard. They gave him an antibiotic shot in hopes that it was perhaps an abscess and would go down. It did not and actually has increased in size. He does not limp and gets around on it just fine but it does hurt when you push on it. We have plans to take him in and have it removed. The vet thinks that it would be too difficult to aspirate anything from it. He believes it to be more solid.
Avatar m tn i know how scared you are because i am in the same boat as you. i found a lump in both of my elbow creases in each arm they're both symmetrical but mine don't move so much and i had mine for a couple years now, i went to one doctor and she said there is no need to worry about it because cancer is hardly ever symmetrical and if it was i would have a 1 and 1 million chance pretty much that it was. i know how you feel i don't thibk yours is too much to worry about either.
Avatar f tn I recently felt a small lump ( feels kind of soft-rubbery) along her spine by her right hip. Are these lumps usually cancer?

Avatar m tn i have a lump in that area too and have had it for years but never paid attention to it.
Avatar m tn I am 18 yrs old, male. In the past few months, i have noticed a small lump forming on my penis(on the upper left side of the shaft) when it is erect(while masturbating mostly). It grows proportional to the size of my penis & is almost negligible when my penis is not erect(though u can still feel it). It doesn't causes any pain at all & it is like having a tiny ball under the skin of the penis(while erect). I can move it with my skin. Apart from this everything is normal.
Avatar m tn Then saturday it started to swell very badly. A knot/ lump formed centralized on my hand/ wrist area and my wrist became very stiff and sore. I iced it and took it easy trying not to strain it any more. The swelling seemed to go down some but not a lot when sunday rolled around. I did the same thing hoping it would keep getting better. Later sunday night I noticed it was swelling up again. I continued to ice the injury but no noticable changes.
Avatar f tn hey i am 19 yrs. old and have been observing a lump in my breast from atleast past 2-3 yrs. it is kind of stable in size and dos not pain at all....

Avatar n tn The most obvious symptom in males would be a palpable or visible lump in the breast tissue. As a rule male breast cancer appears in the later years but anything is possible. If you have noticed a lump (no matter how small) please make an appointment with preferably a Breast Specialist for an exam and possible Mammogram. Regards ...
Avatar f tn A hardened lump could be just dead tissue, an enlarged or infected gland, or breast cancer. Only examination by your doctor, with a mammogram and ultrasound will give you an idea of what it is, and a doctor would probably want to do a fine needle biopsy just to be sure whether it is cancer or not. 80% of lumps are benign. I am a 3yr cancer survivor, bilateral mastectomy, 2 rounds reconstruction. No chemo, no radiation, oral chemo will total 5 years. Side effects difficult but doable.
Avatar n tn In the past 2/3 weeks I have grown a small lump 1cm in diameter on my vein on my left wrist. Next to my vein I have also grown a larger oval shaped lump. Both lumps are painful at times.
Avatar f tn t feeling very well and it turned out I had Hyperemesis Grandivum (Spell check)I asked them to check the lump in my breast they said the cat scan didn't show anything.I've had it before I was pregnant, its like Hard,and its hurts very badly when I sleep.I DONT quite know what it is.Do you?
407591 tn?1202337576 Hi. If that lump has progressed to golf ball size in a month's time, probably the best thing to do is to see a doctor and have it biopsied, just to see if it's anything serious.
624160 tn?1224082480 If breast cancer runs in the family, breast cancer screening should be started 10 years earlier from the age of the first degree relative diagnosed with breast cancer. About 10% of breast cancer is hereditary. The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) data showed that the incidence of breast cancer is about 1.9% in the age group of 20 to 34 years in 2001-2005. I agree with your decision to have the lump examined by your doctor.
Avatar f tn My father had one in his left wrist, he was left handed. I first noticed the lump in my wrist after this last leaf raking season. I can be sitting idle and have sharp shooting burning pains through my wrist, hand and forearm. I have done extensive research but one symptom I have that I have not seen mentioned is this; I can not only feel but see my pulse in the lump. Is this a Ganglion or something else.
Avatar f tn Your worrying about it is NOT going to help or change things so try to calm your thoughts until you have your test and whatever may be recommended when the final report is in. Breast Cancer can also be found in micro calcifications which cannot be felt at all. You can't compare cases either as each is different in some way. Kindest regards ....
Avatar m tn I NOTICED ONE DAY THAT I HAD A SMALL LUMP ON TOP OF MY LEFT WRIST, I DON'T REMEMBER SEEING IT THAT MORNING. I WENT TO DO SOME SHOPPING AND ON THE WAY HOME I NOTICED THE LUMP RIGHT WHERE THE WRIST JOINT BENDS. IT DOESN'T HURT, IT JUST FEELS LIKE A HARD BONY LUMP. HOW COULD SOMETHING THAT WASN'T THERE IN THE MORNING BE THERE IN THE AFTERNOON ? I DID PICK UP A FEW HEAVY THINGS, BUT DON'T REMEMBER ANY PAIN. ITS NOT SWOLLEN, IT JUST SEEMS TO BE SOME KIND OF LUMP.
