How To Treat Lump On Back?
my husband had thyroid cancer a year ago and had his thyroid removed.
At that time there was a lump on his back to the left mid quardrant mRI was done and said was nothing.
Now the lump is the bigger than the size of the palm of my hand. It is very prominent and large.
Should we be concerned?
