Have Numerous Lumps On Legs. Cause And Treatment?
I asked two different Drs over a year ago when I had insurance about the numerous recent lumps on my upper legs, I am a 51 yr old female whe takes pride in how I look. Now I have uncuntable quarter size lumps that look honorable , I can deal with that but I'm terrified for I am a single mother of an adorable, precious 11 yr old daughter! Where can I go for REAL PROFESSIONAL HELP , without being brushed off by SUPOSABLY professionals that just don't care? I am all she has and I need to stay around for her.
