Stressed

Hello, could you please give me your opinion . Last month I suffered from a pain in my tricep at my right hand. I was very nervous and stressed and got really stressed when I touched in this area a small tumor. I instantly visited a doctor. She told me that the tumor in my hand is a lipoma . Then she examined me and she told me that I have cervical syndrome. The last 4 days I am taking vitamins and magnesium. I am still worried though cause I have a feeling of a needle in my head ( different spots ) and the pain still doesn't seem to be better . Do you think I should visit another doctor ???

Hi!
I am sorry to hear about your medical problems.  Well, if you have a lump, yes, it could be a lipoma. However, it can also be a neuro-fibroma or a ganglion cyst. Both these conditions can cause pain. A confirmed diagnosis can be made through CT scan or ultrasound.
If you have cervical radiculopathy then this should respond to physiotherapy. Since a confirmed diagnosis cannot be given on net please consult your doctor regarding this. Hope this helps. Take care!

The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
