A member asked:
If i have a strange lump, could it be cancer? how can i know for sure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. See doctor: You don't tell us where the lump is or what makes it strange. In general, a new persistent lump should be checked by a doctor. Would you let someone who knew nothing about automobiles tune your engine? You, MarkK1, are equally amateur in assessing lumps. See a professional. Your life is more valuable than an automobile.
