General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
With the background of the medical history you had,the swelling in the upper right thigh-hard,this swelling seems to be lymphadenitis -which is common at this age.
Its not related with your liver or gall bladder issues.I would suggest consultation with ER Surgeon who would treat it accordingly.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
Welcome for any more query in this regard to HCM.
Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advise.
Have a Good Day.
