My 4 year old grandson has a large lump on the right side of his chest, next to his breast. It is about the size of a golf ball and is very hard. He says it does not hurt. He doesn t have any other symptoms and has not fallen or be knocked hard, etc. What would this be?
HI. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. It is very rare for such a large and hard lump to be developed on the chest of such a small boy of just 4 years. This may be diagnosed only by an ultrasonography, FNAC to start with. I would suggest you to consult a Pediatric Surgeon or a General Surgeon and get this removed under General Anesthesia. This will benefit us by two ways:1. We get rid of the lump, so the disease is out. 2. we get a definite diagnosis by histopathology examination of the lump after removal.
