What Do Painful Lumps On The Back Indicate?
I have a row of lumps on the left side of my back/and left side, starting about 3 inches down from my arm pit, elongated, and they are under the skin, not visible on the top of skin and very painful when touched. They have been increasing in number and size, I am going to my family doctor this week, do you know what this may be ?
