hello i just have a few questions about what the causes of a bloated stomach accompanied by swollen legs in a woman in her mid 20's could be? Noticed a semi hard lump in her upper/mid right abdomen to the left of her navel a little over a month ago about the size of a racquet ball. When laid on back lump would dissapear into stomach. In recent days stomach has bloated or swelled and has an uneven shape to it. it's harder to the touch if standing, but again softens when lies on back. the swelling has gone up and back down to normal size periodically but the lump still remains, Mild discomfort when sitting in certain positions (feeling of pressure applied to something in abdominal area) that can only be related to the discomfort felt during pregnancy. This is accompanied by swollen legs that look like they are retaining a lot of water. professional advice?
