Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this lump that you have reported. This is not a common site for lumps and am not exactly sure if you have the right information. In case of doubts, I will recommend that you get it examined by a doctor so that he can settle on what exactly is going on and address accordingly if need be. If you are in no acute symptoms, please monitor a little longer before seeking medical advice on this.


I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
