Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Painful lump points towards either inflammation or towards a fast growing pathology. If I were your doctor, I would refer you to the ER of a nearest hospital for a specialist clinical assessment and related investigations like FNAC/MRI as the case may be for appropriate management. Till then you could go for an anti inflammatory drug with a proton pump inhibitor for a symtomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
