How Can The Painful Lumps On The Back Be Treated?

Hello, I am 43 years old ( Femlae) I had a bad fall 19 years ago breaking my back in two locations... I have developed these large ( excrutiating painful) lumps in my lower back. I have had them treated with lidocaine and steriod shots which seemed to make them worse. I have been to so many Dr.'s over the years about my back pain and they all say Lipoma's shouldn't cause that much pain. I am certain that 90% of the pain I am feeling are coming from these large ( fist size) lumps near my spine. Am I crazy??? Or can these really be causing this much pain? My cureent Dr. say's he beleives me but is not sure what to do? any answers ????Thank you, Tam

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some soft tissue tumor like lipoma or neurofibroma or dermatofibroma. Or you may have some other tumour mass.
You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
