Lump since 18 years
Respected sir, There is a lump(about 3-4cm diameter) on my right buttock since very long( about 17-18 years). perhaps it is not a regular shaped (not fully round/not fully oval).It might has increased a little within the last 5 years and now it might be of 4.5-5 cm diameter.It pains a little only when it is pressed otherwise it doesn't create any problem .When I sit for some time then it is compressed in size and then it regains it's original size. Now a fear came to my mind that can it be anything serious like cancer ???? I did an ultrasound before about 1.5 years. The report said it is a vascular (venous) malfunction. Please suggest sir whether I can be safe from cancer ???? As it is written on the report that each modality has its limitations so can the ultrasound miss a cancer tumor???? please help me sir. I am much worried for cancer fear.

You can't see the lump. You don't want to consult a Doctor who can examine you.
How do you expect a Doctor on tele-consultation to help you ?
