How To Treat 3 Round Lumps On The Left Side Of The Spine?

My back started to itch one evening (2 months ago) and I felt three round lumps along the left side if my spine. They are not on the spine, just off to the left. They are tender after probing. I have an under active thyroid and don t know if this info would be relevant. Should I visit my GP. Thank you.
