Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. As it is present for 3 months it is better to consult a general surgeon for examination. Ultrasound examination can be done to find out the content also. Excision and histopathology should be considered if it remains or increase in size. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
