General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

In my opinion lump on the right side needs to be investigated from your surgeon or gynecologist. Treatment depending on one of the following causes evaluated after physical and lab or radiological investigation your doctor would treat as per its need.

Causes in your case could be Antibiomas of the appendicular abscess or ovarian right mass (as CT abdomen suggested), cystic ovary or could be an abscess (being tender to touch) ultrasound or complete blood test or study would confirm it, colonic cancer (Remote possibility-suggested CT contrast study with colonoscopic invest and treatment).

Antibiotic or anti-inflammatory drug response would decide the line of investigation and treatments in your case, and your gynecologist or general surgeon would take all needful precautions to treat your right-sided lump according to its causes.



Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mukund Savaskar
