What Could Be Non Moving Lump Beneath Left Rib Cage Under Breast?

Eye ball sized non moving lump beneath left rib cage under breast. Does not hurt to touch but I have tenderness when moving/twisting that radiates from left to right across both rib cages. Two weeks prior to this finding I found 3 breast lumps on left breast after the quick (within days) onset of swelling and misshapen appearance with pain localized to the swelling. Left axilla swollen for about 3 months with soreness in chest above left breast and shoulder pain extending to my back all left side.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. With the description of your problem as described by you, it might not be advisable and possible to opine on the problem without a clinical examination of the affected area. Therefore, I would advise you to visit a general surgeon in your area and get it assessed properly along with related investigations if and when advised by him without any further delay. For a symptomatic relief of your pain, you could go for an anti inflammatory drug along with a proton pump inhibitor, but this should not delay your appointment with a general surgeon.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
