I have a lump on my back, its not sore, today was the first time feeling it. should go see a gp or is there a specific doctor i need to see. thanks ?

Size, color etc?: First, you need to check the size and color of the lump..red color suggests inflammation or infection and can be treated with local antibiotic cream. Small size may suggest a pimple or inflamed hair follicle but large size that is growing fast may suggest a tumor that needs professional exam
