What Are The Causes For The Lump At The Scapula?
Dear Doctor,
My dad has a lump at the scapula and it hurts a little when pressed. The lump appears after he started with some arm-swinging exercise lately; recommended by his doctor for his heart. I am not sure if the lump is caused by muscle over-strain. He is 65 years old and is diagnosed to have a considerably high cholesterol ("LDL") level which subject him to a greater risk of heart attack and stroke. He stands at 1.78 m tall and weighs 78 kg.
May I know the causes and treatment of the lump?
Thank you.
