Question 1

what kind of benign tumors in the abdomen can be lobular?

Accepted Answer

Hard to address your: Unless you give us more details about what you mean "lobular tumor" such as its location, size, biopsy report etc, it is hard to know what it is. The only way to tell a tumor to be benign versus malignant is with a biopsy. So you need to share the biopsy results with us, then we can try to make some sense of this question.

Question 2

i had a cats can of the abdomen with contrast and i've would that show if i had a tumor in the pancreas or liver?

Accepted Answer

Cats can; dogs can't: Hi. Yes, usually a CT scan of the abdomen will show tumors of the pancreas and liver. However, there is a limit of resolution, as with all testing, and some tumors (more common in pancreas than liver) are below the limit of detection with CT, but very problematic by way of making a hormone in an unregulated manner. Depending on your case, your doc may want more imaging.

Question 3

slight discomfort in left lower quad. of abdomen. left varicocele. have developed velvety darkening in creases. tumor?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: From what you described you are unlikely to have a tumor. Varicocele is probably raising the temperature on the affected side that may be affecting the pigmentation. You may wish to consult your doctor if you should have the varicocele removed.

Question 4

i always have a bloated abdomen. my doc says it's related to perimeno. would i always be bloated from this? i'm concerned i may have a tumor.

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Bloating is typically a symptom that is related to distention or gas in the bowel. Hormone changes during menopause can effect the motility of the bowel and therefore result in bloating. This can also be a symptom of ovarian cancer so a person should be thoroughly evaluated to rule out more serious causes before saying it is hormonal or dietary related.

Question 5

my mom has a pimple in her right abdomen, when she scratch it she felt good. she worried it's a tumor even she doesn't look the pimple. thanks ?

Accepted Answer

Pimple: If your mom doesn't want to look at it but she worries about it, perhaps she should have somebody else to look at it. She should probably go to see her doctor and have the doctor examned her and discuss further whether she should worry about something or not. If that turns out to be some sort of rash-  fungal infection or irritation etc- then the doc also can help her. Don't lose anymore sleep.

Question 6

after i eat or use the bathroom the left lower part of my abdomen swells and i feel a bump. it is a pretty big bump i feel. could this be indicative of a hernia or a possible tumor?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: A 25 year-old with this situation can see her primary care doctor for an exam, go home and poop everything out (may need laxative), and return for a second exam right away... and that should help the doctor decide what the bump is. Hopefully, there is a significance difference before and after the restroom, so it won't be hard for the doctor to figure it out. Otherwise, it might be more serious.

Question 7

strange, tight, pulling sensation in lower abdomen.  could it be a tumor?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Anything is possible, however, a complaint such as this should be discussed with your doctor.

Question 8

if ultrasound identified mass near intestines/right abdomen, would it tell u if it was solid?  if so is tumor only solid mass that can b found in area

Accepted Answer

Seek a better test: Abdomen is better visualized with a ct scan or MRI of the abdomen. Ultrasound is a good screen and is useful when it shows no abnormalities. But it does have high false positives ...So i would advise you to go see your doctor for further evaluation in order to confirm if you indeed have a tumor or was this just a false alarm.

Question 9

i am 33 diagnosed with stage 4 endo at 24 have had hysterectomy at 31at 32 diagnosed with endo tumor around bowel and entire abdomen now seizures help?

Accepted Answer

Need a specialist!: It sounds like you have a frustrating and painful constellation of medical problems.   The help you need is probably more than a doctor can provide in 400 words or less.   If you want, you can arrange for a 30 minute consultation with a HealthTap doctor through the concierge service.  It sounds like you may need care from a specialist at a big city hospital with a medical school.   Best wishes!
