VERY SCARED....FOUND A 2-3CM LUMP ABOVE MY ANUS

[Polian]

I am so scared I just found a lump above my anus under the skin and it's about 2-3 cm. It is soft to touch and it doesn't hurt. I am 31 year old female married with four children. Could this be any type of cancer??? PLEASE HELP!!!!

THANK YOU FOR THE REPLY, HeinrikMD!!!
I will ask my husband to inspect the area.
It is positive to know that this area is not a common area of cancer.
Thank you, I feel much better.

Hi,

It would be best to have yourself examined by a doctor. The area you describe is not a common area of cancer. If you have been losing weight recently, it may be possible that you are feeling the tip of the spinal column. It can also be a benign cyst. For starters (while waiting for the doctor’s appointment), you can have your husband inspect the area, if there is no skin break or no mole in the area, and it seems fairly regular and smooth in shape, it is probably a benign cyst. Stay positive.
