A member asked:
Is it possible for a kidney cancer mass to be felt in the general hip area closer to the lower side?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely to be felt: Kidney cancers are rarely visible or palpable or felt on physical exam. Rarely though, a very big kidney tumor could be visible as bulge and felt in thin patients. Again this happens very rarely
