Hello,

I can understand your concern. However, physical examination of the lump is necessary for specific diagnosis and management. As you are having pain associated with it, it is possible that you may have infection in the area.

I would advise you to visit a physician for the examination and further investigations if necessary for the diagnosis and associated management of the lesion.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you recover soon from pain.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
