A member asked:

I have a small lump on the back of my rib cage on the left side and upper left side as well. it only hurts when leaning over for to long or lifting something to heavy they seem like the bumps can move alittle when you push them?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Skin lump causes: Lumps felt under the skin can have many causes from simple things like swelling and bruising from local trauma, benign cysts of oil glands, benign localized fatty tissue collections ( lipoma), infections ( boil or abscess), to more serious causes up to and including cancerous masses. Any persistent, enlarging or painful lumps should be evaluated.
