How Can A Painless Lump On The Left Side Of The Abdomen Be Treated?
My son is nearly three, when lying him on the bottom of my bed with his legs hanging off I can see a very noticible ping pong ball size lump in the left side of his stomach just above the top of his pants. It feels hard but doesn t seem to bother him. I m very scared and don t know what to do

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Looking like benign swelling. Nothing to worry, mostly its lipoma. Just observe it if size increases or associated with pain then consult doctor and he will advise some tests.
