[|Human|] There is a hard lump on the outer side of my butt It has been there at least 3 years It has bbeen seen by a doctor before and they said not to worry about it But this few months it has grown bigger and more painful than before It got no other symptom Just the lump itself Could it be anything serious
[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor. 1. The long-standing history of lump suggest benign pathology (non-cancerous) most likely lipoma.2. But present symptoms could be due to complications in the lump.3. In this case very much recommended to get examined for better evaluation.4. An ultrasound examination - will give the nature of the lump, its extensions, vascularity and source. 5. It could not be anything serous - but you may need to get a small incision and a course of antibiotics post procedure. Good luck. Hope I have answered your query,anything to ask ?
