I have a mass that seems to be growing right under my rib cage close to my abdomen. It s about 2in from the center of my chest and it s seems to be about 3in - 4in wide. It s soft and doesn t hurt that much... there s a little pain but not much... it s showed up a couple of weeks ago. ThanksJeremy
HIA lump could be anything from infection to lipoma to carcinoma. I would advise to you to go for a test called FNAC. It stands for Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology. A part of the lump would be taken out and will be studied under a microscope to see if the cells are normal or cancerous.However, a detailed physical examination involving palpation and percussion and trans illumination of lump is required before making any further comments.
