What Does A Lump On The Abdomen Indicate?

Hi, I have a growth inside my abdomen on the right front about even with my navel. It started a couple weeks ago as a small nodule but is now about the size of a grapefruit. There is no pain, although I do have a sharp pain in my rib cage just above this area and I am having trouble with my right side arm and leg throbbing at times. My urinary system and bowel seem to be working normally for me. No notable changes. I have an appointment with my primary on the 28th of August but wonder if I should try to get it looked at sooner?
