My Problem

by Marcucas, Apr 14, 2008 06:21AM
Right wasn't sure where to post this as its undiagnosed.

I am a 22 year old overweight smoker (unfortunately) and i have recently developed a large tender lump below the breast on top of my rib cage on the left side and also the same on the right.

Im not sure if its related but i also have a hard lump right in the middle of my chest between both pecs whether this is normal.

Thing is im geting some severe discomfort on both my left and right sides where the lumps are and im afraid to go to the doctors in case im wasting their time.

Im not sure if this is a pulled muscle as its quite painful when stretching otherwise its painless although discomforting.

Any ideas guys?

Any redness or warm skin over those lumps? May these lumps be seen or detected by anyone other?

Do these lumps move under the skin like a ball, or they are just like abundant tissue? Also: soft or hard (describe)?

Lumps are tender when you press upon them?
