Can Abdominal Lump Be Lymphoma?
I am 17 and found a lump in my abdomen a few weeks ago. There was also swelling around it and it was very tender to the touch. I went to the ER who suspected Lymphoma, but the CT didn't show anything. I was told the CT could have missed the Lymphoma if it was small and in an early stage. I'm being treated as if it's an infection and if the lump is not gone in a week I'll get a biopsy. Do you think I have Lymphoma?

HI
Well come to HCM
Lymphoma is very less likely still biopsy is the main test to rule out this, this could be lymphadenitis, clinical symptoms are very important to judge this, other supportive investigation are equally important, hope this information helps, taka care.
