When I put my hands on my back, palms down and push like I m trying to make a bowel movement is when I feel this lump. It s as large as my Palm. Any help is greatly appreciated.. thank you.

Hi,
It can be an organised hematoma following the surgeries, or a lipoma or even a soft tissue tumour.
Show it to a surgeon for a physical examination and a needle biopsy if he feels so or get an ultrasound of that area to get to a diagnosis.
