What Is The Painful And Huge Lump On Top Of My Sternum?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... I have a lump the size of a peach pit that is moveable under my skin on top of my sternum that is very painful and just came about in the last two weeks, I am on no medications. I had what my doctor described as a skin cyst two years ago and nothing serious but now this is happening under it. Wondering what it is?

hi.

i suggest you do a follow-up with your doctor. it might just be a recurrence of your cyst, or it might be different one. a physical examination and imaging should be done if deemed necessary.

hope this helps.

good day!
