A member asked:
Had a solid movable lump at the back of the body in dorsum area and experience back pain on that area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually movable lump: Is good, meaning benign if lipoma or sebaceous cyst. However, if it's painful, it needs attention by a physician to examine, and assess treatment options. Depending on what the diagnosis is, will determine the course of treatment. You can have direct and referred pain pattern from that bump, b/c it occupies space, and the back/ms/skin is a tight region. Call your doctor.
