What Causes Bruising Along With Lump In The Middle Of The Chest?
Hello Doctor, my daughter has had a 2.5 cm diameter circle for about a week and half in the middle of her chest, today i had felt it and i feel a small little bump, the bruise is still there but it looks like its kind of fading, so i was just very curious and i would like a diagnostic because i am worried.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have bruising along with lump in the middle of the chest . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like infections , inflammation , tumors , trauma , boils , abscesses , hematoma , benign and malignant tumors or cysts . I would suggest you to consult general surgeon for proper examination .Allergic reaction can also be one of the reasons for bruising . Doctor may order biopsy , check tenderness and consistency and order x-ray to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may put you on antibiotics along with anti inflammatory or may drain the lump . Doctor may also recommend surgical removal or radiaotherapy .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
