Hello,

Thanks for the query.

Can you please provide more details about this ball or lump?
- Since when do you have these symptoms?
- Are there signs of inflammation such as redness, local rise of temperature, soreness etc?
Is it tender to touch?
Did you have fever?

I will be able to comment about this better if you can provide more details.

Awaiting your reply...

Regards
