Hard Bump (under the Skin) In Pelvic Area
Posted: 12-28-03 18:56pm

I have had a hard (as big as a fingernail) bump in/on my pelvic area that is underneath the skin for a few years (at least). I am concerned. It has not grown since I discovered it. When I pull the skin back tight, it looks like a white (hard) circular bump under the skin. It doesn't hurt. It is not colored. I thought it could be a trapped, ingrown hair underneath the skin but that would seem strange considering that it would be huge by now. Has anyone had this problem? I don't want to do anything irrational and don't believe in cutting open things unless you're going die if you don't. However, I am somewhat worried.

Could be a common cyst. I had a similiar thing on my face just before my ear.

I must admit I am of 2 minds, my first instinct is to suggest that you see a dr (he doesn't have to cut to test, x-ray, ultrasound, a needle biopsy) but my second thought that is if it's been there that long (you say a few years at least) then leave it.

But you wouldn't have posted if you weren't worried & you say you're worried so I think i'd at least check with a dr to see what your options are. Otherwise (or as well) check out some alternative/natural therapies.

Good luck

It could be a lymph node. They are hard little bumps about the size of a pea usually and if they are enlarged, they could be a warning of infection.

Hard Lump
Posted: 01-09-04 23:52pm

I have the exact same type of lump, only on my upper back between my shoulder blade and spine. I've that that thing for about 2-3 years. Never bothered me at all. Then two days ago it started to itch and now it is swollen and red and very painful. Have to go to the Dr. To find out what it is.
