Hard lump on right side towards back, at bottom of rib cage. not painful but noticeable if i lift or do something strenuous. dr isn't concerned tho??

Lipoma: It might be a Lipoma which usually is a benign tumor of adipose tissue and just needs to be watched. Likely that is the reason your doctor is not concerned. But do follow up with him so he can keep an eye on it. Thanks.
