What Does A Hard Lump Below The Breast Indicate?
My Mom has a hard bruise/knot on the left of her abdomen just below her breast. She s on oxygen and has stage 4 lymphedema. She has a hernia but due to age and other diagnoses, is not a good candidate for surgery. I am concerned by the hardness of the lump on her abdomen; it is slightly discolored but not black and blue. My email address is YYYY@YYYY

Hello,
Hard lump in abdomen needs to be investigated with an ultrasound abdomen. I suggest you to consult your surgeon for clinical assessment, investigations and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
