A member asked:

I have what feels like a small gum-ball under my skin. located a couple inches right from my hip. it's painful & even worse when touched. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Swelling: Its very difficult to say without seeing the lump in person but the fact that it is painful means you need to be seen by a doctor in person. Swelling can sometimes be indicative of infection or possibly large lymph nodes.
