Hello there. I can understand your concern. Any swelling, anwhere in the body needs to be evaluated. Its very difficult to comment on anything without examining the swelling. Kindly consult a general surgeon in person for further evaluation and management. It might not even be a muscle thing as you are saying. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
