My 82 year old mother (alzheimer) fell last night from a stool Mere inches....it wasnt a hard fall but soon after a lump formed on her behind on what would be the fatty part if she had fat. What could this be? She can walk...but it hurts to sit or lay a certain way
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, The lump formed on the back could be due to trauma or the lump could have come into focus after trauma. A clinical assessment of the lesion is required. Relevant investigations are required to know the nature of the lesion. An aspiration cytology of the lesion is required to know the site, origin and nature of the lesion. After knowing the character of the lesion appropriate management can be done. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
