Avatar m tn I have a lump on my right side just below by ribs that my doctor said was a fatty tumor. since then I have found one on my right arm right by the elbow and recently one just below my left knee. Could it be something more serious?
Avatar f tn This is a fluid-filled lump at the back of the knee. This is caused by fluid built up under pressure within the knee cavity in response to an inflammatory problem within the knee. Another condition that can cause popliteal pain is 'popliteus tendinitis'. This is probably what you have. This is an inflammation of the tendon of the popliteal muscle. It causes pain on deep squatting and on standing up.

Avatar f tn So I am a 27 year old female, for the last year or so I have had super bad migraines. Which have gotten better with time. Now I am experiencing a painless lump in my esophagus. I have been to the doctor at least 4 times in the last month trying to figure out what is going on. So they put me on Prednisone 25mg three times a day at the same time. I finished those off and lost my voice completely and the lump in my throat never changed. So they then put me on Amoxicillin 500mg three times a day.
Avatar n tn I have had a painless lump in my neck for several years. It is on the left side in the same area where my lymph nodes typically swell up when I have a cold. It is behind the upper part of my jaw, below my ear. It is hard, painless (unless I press it rather hard), immovable and about an inch in size. I have had two doctors who have been aware of it, but dismissed it. The first one put me on antibiotics to make it go down, but they did not do anything.

Avatar n tn Peyronie disease - a lump caused by injury, or unknown , to the blood vessels of the shaft,scar tissue calcifies and becomes hard and plaque can spread slowly causing tension on fibres within the penis ,due to loss of elasticity it is often associated with an upward curve in the tip when erect (this nomally follows in the weeks after finding the lump) , if the lump is below the curve would be downwards when erect . Most common in middle age. Easily diagnosed with ultrasound .

Avatar n tn The lump is about two inches across the top of the breast and just under an inch in width. The lump is painless and I have had no nipple discharge. About 10 days after finding the lump, I met with my doctor who then sent me for a diagnostic mammogram and an ultrasound. Neither showed anything, and the US tech said that it was probably thickening of the tissue and don't worry about it. I was very relieved.
Avatar m tn Mam when my testicle are hanging low they look normal but as they come up some times I notice a painless lump above my left testicle in scotrum and its painless movable as when I press it it disappears what is it and even m feeling like vomiting,coughing,i did gym at home without supporter at home for some days so is it hernia??????
Avatar f tn Hi, Because you are so young,I doubt that this lump is related to breast cancer.Most likely,since it's movable,I would think it could be a cyst or a fibroadenoma ( both benign lumps) which is quite common in your age group.You must never ignore any abnormality in the breasts,so please take my advice and go see your doctor who might order an Ultrasound.This is a painless procedure that will provide an answer as to the nature of this lump. Al the best....and please see your doctor okay?
Avatar m tn Earlier tonight, while showering, I found a painless lump on the left side of my scrotum. I wash myself thoroughly everyday, but the lump looks like a zit. I applied pressure to it only to find that this caused pain of the lump and no other results. Otherwise, I would have never known it was there. The second lump is on the right side of my groin, between my scrotum and my thigh. This one I can feel and is quite large.
Avatar f tn Painless lump behind the ear could be Lump behind the ear could be folliculitis (hair follicle infection), lipoma (localized collection of fat), a cyst, an inflamed lymph node or a neurofibroma (localized harmless swelling in of nerve and connective tissue). Watch the lump. Do not touch everyday but once in 10-15 days. If the lump increases in size, becomes painful, changes color, bleeds, changes shape or consistency or more similar lumps appear then consult a doctor. Hope this helps.
Avatar m tn if you look at your penis from the top go straight to the botton of the shaft, at the top where the shaft meets your body and hair, right in the center if you push in and down, towards your anus, there is a very hard lump connected to a tube or vein. The lump is about the size of a pencil eraser and very hard. When soft I have no problems with it but when erect it is very painful...very much so if the penis is pulled downward. Thanks for any help.
