What Causes Lump On Tailbone?

I have a lump on my tailbone. Went to my doctor. She said it could be lipoma. Referred me to a general surgeon. The next open appointment is in 2 weeks which I scheduled already. If it s not lipoma can it still be removed? Because it s uncomfortable when I sit

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have lipoma or neurofibroma or other soft tissue tumor.
You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology.
Most of the benign tumour need excision. So you should go for excision.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
