I am mrs.felix, aged 47. My uterus and overies are removed around 12yrs back. so far i was good in health except leg pain.But i noticed after some years a small line like thing protruding under my left breast,just on the last rib.it was there as it is.but suddenly i noticed it growing.before 6yrs i had a scan report saying that infiltration of fatty liver. now that i can see it is growing, now the present size is like a half cut bun.no pain, its not hard.i can press it slowly. i have severe indigestion problem when i take a masala items and spicy food. and i cannot eat fully. now i myself stopped all kinds of food and i take only oats , broken wheat porridge and all vegetables and fruits. i am afraid. pls give me an answer.
Hi. Thanks for your query. Read the whole history carefully. This looks to be NOT related to the fatty liver at all. This can be a lipoma or a mass on the rib from the muscles or so. The best way is to undergo an ultrasonography and FNAC to get an idea what it is ; confirm by CT scan only if required. Consult a General Surgeon to get an idea whether it is lipoma or something else. You may need a small surgery to get this removed and get a confirmed diagnosis and a planned further management.
