Tiny lump on rib cage

I have noticed a tiny lump on my rib cage. It's painful as well. Not sure I should be worried??

  • Hello and thanks for your post

    I'm afraid we are unable to diagnose or tell anyone if anything is the matter. Lumps can have straightforward medical explanations, such as infection. But only a doctor can make a medical assessment so the best thing to do is to make an appointment with your GP  to get checked out just to be on the safe side.

    Because of the current pandemic, it’s more likely you will be offered a telephone appointment initially with your doctor. After the consultation, if they feel they need to see you, they can offer you a face to face appointment.

    I hope you know more about your situation soon.

    Best wishes,
