Hello I have recently noticed a lump about an inch away from my spine. its causes a substantial amount of pain. I would say 7 out of 10 and 5 out of 10 on good days. Its movable also and hard. I have noticed that i have a smaller one on the right side of my lower back about an inch from my spine. The one on the left caused pain down my leg to my knee. It keeps me up at night and when i wake up when i finally do fall asleep, thats when the pain is really bad. My back also spases and locks up sometimes. Im going to go to a surgeon to find out. I am a 27 year old female with no health problems except asthma. I also forgot to add that the lump is no on the surface of the skin and you have press to feel it. You can feel it better when i bend over. I just want to feel some releif. The over the counter drugs dont seem to be helping much.
