Question 6

i have a large lump on my thigh, a couple of inches above the knee. it's hard, painless and doesn't move, there was no injury. should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Exam needed: A physician should examine this mass for you for diagnosis as bone tumors do occur in the knee region. Benign growths like a lipoma are usually soft and movable. Appropriate tests like an xray will be ordered depending upon clinical findings.

Question 7

last week i found a soft lump on my thigh. it is painless and i just can feel it by touching. i worry about it. is tumour or sth like sarcoma?

Accepted Answer

Have it checked: Most soft tissue lumps turn out to be lipomas, which are benign. That being said, a sarcoma needs to be ruled out. I would see your doctor and if needed, an orthopaedic oncology specialist. An MRI can confidently diagnose a lipoma. Most other entities may require a biopsy.

Question 8

hello, last week i found a soft lump on my thigh. it is painless and i just can feel it by touching. i worry about it. is tumour or sth like sarcoma?

Accepted Answer

Could be : Usually soft lums are benign fatty tumors ; need to monitor for growth , but if it just pooed up rec removing it to see exactly what it is.

Question 9

i have a lump on my thigh a couple inches above the knee. are theaw characteristics of cancerous lumps?

Accepted Answer

Have it checked out: Any lump bigger than one inch should be checked by your doctor especially if it is painless and steadily growing in size. If it is hard and growing, it could be a cancer. So get a medical check up before any more delays.

Question 10

i i found a lump on my thigh its between my vagina and groin. since finding the lump every time i feel it an pexcruciating pain goes up my back?

Accepted Answer

Needs evaluation.: A painful lump in the vulvar/groin area merits an urgent visit to the emergency department of the nearest hospital.  It could be an abscess, requiring an immediate evaluation and drainage.
