Hi my husband  has a medium sized hard lump on the left side of his chest about an inch above the nipple.  It has a yellowish bruise on the skin for about a week now....the bruise is about the size of a small childs fist....making an appointment for him today but I am worried
HI, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor.1-I have studied your query in depth.2-IN my opinion, this medium hard lump on left chest above nipple with yellow bruise for a week, appears to be -hematoma -if any recent trauma is there, which you haven't clarified -as the bruise could be after some trauma only.3-The yellow hallow around the lump -is the recovering induration and should not worry you much.4-On Hardness of the lump -I would advise-a-NSAID, b-Surgeons consultation, c,-not to worry, as it would resolve in 2 was time with proper care as told above.5-I would advise you to consult ER surgeon URGTLY-as the severe pain could be damaging to your testes.5-Hope this would solve your query to your satisfaction.6-Wellcome for more queries to me On Chat Doctor.7-Thnks once again for your inquisitive query. Have a Good Day.!!
