Female abdomen subcutaneous nodules

Generally, patients who undergo examinations have heard of lumps. Lumps are usually the main manifestations of cancer. When a lump or mass appears in a certain part of the body, many patients think it is a tumor. However, there is no need to panic too much in this situation, because a lump is not necessarily cancer, it may also be an inflammatory tumor or a malignant tumor. Many people can feel a lump in their abdomen. At this time, you must carefully identify it. Let me introduce it below.

1. Subcutaneous nodules are relatively hard, annular or oval, non-painful, generally 0.2 to 10 cm in size, and located in places with more friction, such as the extensor side of the elbow or the heel. It is best to go to the hospital's outpatient surgery department for examination. It may be a cyst or comedonoma. If the lump does not expand or no other changes occur, it does not need to be treated. There are many reasons for subcutaneous nodules, but it must be ruled out that it is rheumatoid nodules or gout.

2. If you find a lump in your abdomen, you must perform basic diagnosis at this time. Small lumps tend to be benign, and of course they are not complete and need regular follow-up. If they are larger than one centimeter, you need to pay attention. In addition to the size of the lump itself, the trend and rate of the size are also the criteria for distinguishing cancer. Lumps that continue to expand or expand rapidly tend to become malignant.

3. Softer or cystic lumps are generally good, while harder or fixed lumps are likely to become malignant. The swollen lymph nodes of lymphoma feel firmer. Good tumors generally have clearer ice structures and better sperm motility. Malignant tumors have unclear boundaries and poor ability to adhere to or integrate with surrounding tissues.

In general, the lumps felt on the abdomen must be carefully identified whether they are subcutaneous nodules. They may be subcutaneous nodules, but some lumps may also be caused by diseases. If you find a lump on your abdomen, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible to avoid missing the best time for treatment of the disease. Don't ignore these diseases. After all, your own health is the most important.
