What Does Swelling Around Waist Indicate?
I have a mysterious swelling that appeared a day ago. It started as a small swelling in the small of my back that began as a red, raised, and painful then as the days passed, it began to spread around my waist along the side and now a small swelling appeared in the front.

Hello,
I have studied your case.
As per your history it looks swelling of soft tissue which can be hemangioma or sebaceous cyst.
I will advise to consult surgeon for clinical examination and if required proper investigation.
I will advise you to do MRI and Ultrasound of the swelling.
Benign swelling giving rise to pain can be excised.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
