[|Human|] I have a dime sized lump on the right side of my abdomen. It is about a hands width below my rib cage. It is not painful to the touch or anything like that. It is round and not irregular in shape. It does not stick out from my body. I am a 43 year old female in good health. What could this be? I have a yearly doctor s appointment in 2 months and did not know if it would be okay to wait until then to have it checked.
[|AI|]  Hi.based from your description alone, it could be a lipoma (fatty deposit), fibrous (fibrous tissue formation) or a cystic formation (sebaceous or gelatinous cyst). These are all benign lesions, but other lesion types must also be ruled-out. it's not an emergency case, but if the lesion is increasing in size, causes pain or discomfort, and is bothersome for you, a consult with your doctor, preferably a general surgeon, is best for clinical evaluation. Diagnostics (such as X-ray or ultrasound) and management (medical and/or surgical, excision biopsy of the lesion) will be directed accordingly. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
