What Do Intermittent Big Lumps On Both Upper Thighs In A Paraplegic Indicate?

With in the last couple of months I have a golf ball size lump on the upper thigh area - it occurs at the same time - both spots are the exact same location as the other side - no specific time - can last for hours or an hour - when they become noticeable the golf ball is hard but can disappear in 15 minutes - I m also a paraplegic (for 24 years)

Hello,

* Sounds to be possible hernia development on both sides of groin as they are disappearing with time and present for a varying period of times.

* Kindly get an ultrasound of the area with high resolution for further clarification of the issue.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
