I went to get a physical and everything came back fine. I have had alot of little lumps on my ribs and middle back on the right side. They hurt when I BREATH heavy. My doctor tells me they seem to be lipomas or cysts. All bloodwork came back fine. I do have a UTI Athough but doctor tells me it has nothing to do with the painful lumps on my ribs. It seems they pop up alot. I now have a quarter size one on my right side rib. I do eat heatlhy and do worry alot. I also work out but these lumps are annoying. I wonder if they cause pain because they may be resting on a nerve.
Respected user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly. * Vital informations are lacking here in the query 1. bumps - duration , number , exact size, shape , appearance , consistency , tender on touch , itching , progress since beginning , any watery or serous discharge , movement in relation to underlying skin 2. respiratory problem if any ( except hurt on breath ) 3. high resolution clinical photograph 4. lab reports * In absence of these I can evaluate as Multiple Neurofibromatosis . Hope this helps you. Awaiting for your details. Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.com & reviewing my answer. Regards dear take care.
