lump

Avatar f tn Before the lump I had heavines of arm and discomfort in shoulder and upper back shoulder same side of the lump. (I don't know if these symptoms are related to the findings).
Avatar m tn My husband had rotator cuff surgery 6 months ago, right after his surgery he got a huge lump on his upper arm. When he would go to therapy it would swell and get hot. The therapiest stopped doing therapy which caused his shoulder to freeze. They have run lots of labs, 3 MRIs, XRays with no solutions. Then he went to another orthopedic doctor which did surgery to unfreeze his shoulder but with therapy again his arm is swelling and getting hot. We are really needing some help.
Avatar m tn It started to get better but then I got the same pain in the right shoulder which travelled down my arm. At this point a lump appeared on my left side accross my 1st rib which was very painful to touch. The doctor I saw said it could be costocondritis. However the lump seemed to go away after a few days but the pain remained in my right shoulder. It then moved through my chest area around my heart and I had difficulty breathing as it hurt too much to expand my lungs fully.
Avatar f tn Is it a way that it can press against a nerve? It's just strange that this is all happening on the Same side as the lump. Basically I'm experiencing numbness and tingling and my upper back/shoulder blade feels pinched.
Avatar n tn A few days ago, I noticed a small lump had formed on my upper back, just above the shoulder blade. At the time it was basically the same tone as the rest of my skin, but felt like something hard about the size of a pea just under the skin. Over the past few days it has gotten rather red (with tenderness and slight redness surrounding it for about an inch) and is somewhat painful when pressed.
Avatar f tn I noticed a lump at the back of my neck. I noticed it few years ago. One of my mom's friend told me it was a lymph node. It is not visible. You can't feel it if you are looking straight. If you tilt your head down and to the left you can feel it. If you tilt your head up and to the right you can't feel it. It looks like a smooth surface. It is located at the upper left just below the hair and near the spine. It didn't change it size tho sometimes you can't almost feel it.
Avatar n tn i have a lump on my upper right side just below my shoulder ,i have had this lump now for 2 months and it is not getting any smaller.please could you give me a diagnosis.
Avatar m tn I have had a lump under the skin on my shoulder for a few years, about the size of a quarter. I have several bumps on the back of my neck, some small and one big one. They shrink and grow larger at times. I was diagnosed with an infection 5 years ago and took medicine as well as had a cyst removed. I am wondering if its just the infection showing it self again and then leaving multiple times over the last few years.
Avatar m tn It woke up one morning and thought I had a stiff neck from sleeping on a bad pillow, perhaps. It evolved during the day and by evening I was having terrible pain in my upper back notably between my shoulder blades, and I couldn't move my neck back. I couldn't move at all without terrible pain.
Avatar f tn On November Thanksgiving day I started with an itch on the right side chest ( a lil upper from my breast) itch comes and goes, at that time I thought maybe it was my neck necklace cause allergy. By the beginning of January 18 I decided to take off the necklace because the itch won't go away. And now I still have the itch. it feels like a burning feeling like irritated. But no rash. And now I feel like my right arm flares up too. Since I was lil I would suffer from hormonal changes.
809537 tn?1238403508 chronic belching and breathlessness and lump in centre of upper abdomen mine feels like a peach pith..doctor is sending me to ultrasound scan how did you get on?
Avatar f tn Detected a lump on the upper right back of neck parallel to ear in the hairline last Fri. Saw my internist past Tue & had ultrasound performed. Report said, “hypoechoic structure measuring 1.9 x 1 x 1.4 cm within the scalp. It says possible lipoma but lymph node not entirely excluded”. I have 3 lipomas on right side of body but since I had Stage 1 melanoma on left side of shoulder a yr ago we are getting me into see the oncologist who removed my melanoma for further eval.
Avatar f tn I then discovered a Lump in my arm and the consultant that treated me diagnose a problem with my shoulder (as well as necrotised fat in my upper arm that was removed instead of the original lump). I was sent to another consultant who removed the original lump and in another operation performed a shoulder decompression, removing thickened synovial fluid from the shoulder joint.
Avatar m tn I have this small (slightly painful most of the time) lump under my left shoulder blade. Sometimes the pain can increase and radiate down my arm but it's nothing unbearable. On a 1 to 10, I would say the pain - at its worst - is a 4 . The lump is not really visible but you can feel it when you push down and move back and forth in that area. Sometimes, when I stretch that area (turning my neck to the right and looking down), I feel it pop/snap (just a lil bit, not always).
Avatar n tn My cat we recently discovered had a lump at her shoulder, she let us touch it and does not seem to bother her at all. We went away for a weekend and came back and she has licked the spot so much, it is raw and bleeding and it has no more fur at that spot. We cleaned it and put her in a tshirt so she can't lick it anymore. I think this is something more serious that what my vet says it is. I have her scheduled to see another vet for a second opinion. What is wrong with her?
Avatar m tn She also had some pain in the neck, shoulder and upper back. Went to her OBGYN today and she was told that thyroid seemed a little big and was sending her for blood work. Does this seem like a possible explaniation? She has been to the ER, GP and maybe a specialist depending on her most recent medication. I just don't see how this can relate to a throid issue.
Avatar m tn It is always worth getting them seen as soon as possible, either to set your mind at rest, -or in the worst-case scenario, to get the lump removed as soon as possible.
Avatar f tn I have been having right upper quadrant pain that radiates to inbetween my shoulder blades and horrible chest pressure after eating. Dr. sent me for an ultrasound official results not back yet the tech said she did not think she saw any stones. My question is could it still be the gallbladder and could the ultrasound have missed something. Also I have an oval shaped lump about the size of a walnut on my lower left rib cage which is movable should I be concerned about this?
155639 tn?1251738603 I have two small bumps that feel like they are under the skin on my left shoulder. They could be bites but they are not itchy. Any ideas?
170935 tn?1225371076 can acid reflux cause a burninng sensation in my upper back near the right shoulder? It seems to get worse when i eat or cough? even movement can trigger it sometimes. it is like a burning tingly feeling that comes and goes. I definitely have a lot of acid at moment but can it cause burning in your shoulder or is it my lungs???
494669 tn?1275362475 Since then the aches, cramps, tingling, cold sensations and such have gotten worse and expanded to the shoulder, neck back, armpit and rib area. My left side of my chest does hurt at times and I think I am having a heart attack, but again the cardiologist says it is just fine. Is it possible to have some sort of infection in your muscles or nerves or something?
Avatar n tn I found a breast lump (semi squishy, size of grape, movable) in my right breast about a month ago. I have implants that have been in for 17 years (half silicone half saline) and I am 40. I also breastfeed my son who is 18 mths. I went to my doctor and he said it did not feel like any cancerous mass he has felt before, but made me appt for Mammogram (1st), U/S, CA125. The lump when pushed can be moved slightly. I also have slight pain in breast and underarm.
Avatar n tn I noticed swelling in my left nipple that wasn't there before. The nipple is fine but the dark area around my nipple is swollen. It doesn't hurt and I don't feel a lump. being concerned i googled breast cancer symptoms and noticed that swelling armpits is one of the symptoms. I have had swollen armpits for awhile now. About 6 months since I noticed them. I feel a lump the size of an egg on both armpits. Should I be concerned?
1284111 tn?1271592140 For little over a month now, I have constant pain in left shoulder,left shoulder plate, arm ,forearm and numb index finger(after intense arm wrestling one night). When it first started I had big neck pain also. Now the neck pain is almost all gone but if I work hard(mechanic work or heavy physical activity) it all come back right fast(neck pain and shoulder). If i stay idle for a couple of days, the pain will go away but not totally. So far I had X rays or cervical done, CT scan of neck also.
Avatar n tn No relief what so ever, but my concern is that my collarbone feels swollen with a lump like feeling at the end of it. The lump just showed up in the midst of all this pain, and I am concerned.
Avatar n tn I went to the dentist about 2 months ago, for a small lump on my cheek that I thought might be communicating across the fascial planes to a tooth. They diagnosed a tooth root fracture from a previous root canal (years ago). Went to an oral surgeon and he extracted the tooth and said he thought the lump on my cheek was a lymph node. This lump spread and got a very bruised appearance on my skin.
Avatar n tn t know if you ever found out what that lump on your neck/shoulder was, but if you did, what was it? I have one too, right where the neck meets the shoulder, but have not ever had any injury. Anyway, i hope evrerything is okay now.
