A member asked:
I discovered a small lump on my pectoral muscle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Have it checked by -: your PCP and then a surgeon. It should be investigated and possibly removed or biopsied, or aspirated. Generally these lumps are benign, and could be a cyst, or a Lymph node, etc. Your examining physician should have a better sense and will decide what will be the best recourse to take. Good Luck.
