HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is sudden on set then it could be due to trauma of needle (Injection) if ever taken there, ideally such lesion demand the clinical examination I would advise you to discus this with doctor as you are already there in hospital so it would be easy to diagnose the lesion hope this information helps.
