I also had a lump on my rib no test would show any thing but it was causing a lot of pain I was finally sent to a surgeon and he removed a tumor off my 12th rib. It was a fatty tumor but know I have a large bulge just down below my right breast above where the tumor was removed I can't sleep at night when I lat on that side kit feels like I am on a baseball and the whole area around the whole rib cage hurts and there are ore lumps so here I go again with test. Please have your's checked out just to mark sure
Im 17 and my left rib side under the breast it slightly bigger than the other side and it seems to be a solid lump which I'm guessing may be fat however there is a small lump that I can move around with my fingers, it doesn't hurt but is uncomfortable. I have an appointment next week but I was just wondering whether anyone had updates on theirs as the majority of the cases stated seem alike to mine?
You have been misdiagnosed. It isn't an ulcer
Hello. I see that you posted your post in 2008 but i hope you will answer me. Did you ever found out what was that lump on you ribs? Im asking because i also have a hard lump on my right 2 ribs, one is above my breast and another one in my breast but also attached to my rib. And before i noticed it i also have problem with getting sick before or after i eat and dr. found a H-Pylori bacteria also like you have. I want to sleep alot. Please let me know what your doctor found this lump is! (sorry for any spelling mistakes, my english not so good)
hi, we had a similar case.. and am planning to have a check up this sept 8... i pray this is nothing bad at all...
Hi!
Im from estonia and dont speak english very well, so excuse my mistakes. I just wanted to tell my story because i had same problems like most of you have and it was very hard to find something from internet about it. Maybe someone need this info in future.
About month ago i found small hard lump under my right breast. it was painless and hard but movable. Ofcourse i was in panic after i found it. After self examination i found swollen lymphnode under my armpit as well. So i was even more in panic.
I went to the docter who made bloodtest because of swollen node and it was normal. Today i had ultrasound because of the lump under breast. Doctor didnt find anything maligant, this lump was just littlebit swollen milk duct. He suggest me not to wear too tight bras and said its quite ordinary problem. And lymphnode was ok also :)
take care yourself! all of you! and if you find something go to docter. Its very frustraiting to wait tests and the results but after it you are happy that you made them :)
