What Does A Lump Under Skin Below The Ribcage Indicate?
For about 3mths now my 18 mth old son has had lump under the skin just below his rib cage. The lump is roughly between 1-2 inches and is only visable at certain times e.g when lying down but strangely not only just when skin is stretched. Do you have any idea what it could be?
