What Could The Oozing, Painful Lump Under Skin Of Shoulder Blade Be?

I have a hard painful lump under the skin of my left shoulder blade. It has appeared and gotten worse in the last two days. It oozes when I squeeze it every 5 hours or so. I have other lipomas ok my body but I don t know if this is one because I m able to drain it. It is very, very painful to lay on my back or even move my arm in certain ways.

Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of such a lump, I would come up with only one and one possibility that is a sebaceous cyst! Nothing to worry about this and try not to get infected there!

I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
