Hi,Dear,thanks for the query to Health Care Magic.
After meticulously studying your facts and your concerns
following possibilities need to be considered in coming to its diagnosis -
In my opinion this painless,movable lump needs more info for its perfect diagnosis.Hence I would advise USG study of it for its perfect diagnosis.
Clinical possibilities which could be thought of is -
Spigelian hernia/ post-operative scar hernia.
Its very difficult to think of other probabilities as the facts are very scanty and hence I would advise you to consult a ER Surgeon , who would work out the clinical check up and would fix its diagnosis and its rightful treatment
Don't worry and go ahead as suggested to resolve the lump issue of yours
Hope this would give you confidence to plan treatment with your doctor on your next visit ,which you should plan definitely.
Feel free to ask any further query in this regard to HCM and to ME.
Write excellent review if you feel satisfied with this reply,which would help my rating for the benefit of the other patients.
Wishing early and fast recovery for your lump.
