Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have painful small knot like lumps in muscles. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like muscle tumor or lipoma . I would suggest you to consult general practitioner for proper examination . Doctor will examine physically to check tenderness and consistency . Doctor may take biopsy . Doctor may refer you to oncologist after diagnosis for radiotherapy or other treatment . Doctor may also recommend liposuction for lipoma . For now apply warm compresses on lumps and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
