Hi guys, sorry to post again about all my lumps and bumps, i suffer horrendously from health anxiety and finding all this lumps has put my mind into overdrive. It helps me to write it all down on here and vent.
I’m growing increasingly concerned over multiple lumps that I have found in my lower back, just above the hips and near the dimples. They are on both sides of my back and almost mirror each other perfectly. I have counted between 8-10 lumps all varying in different shapes and sizes. Some of them feel like ovals and other feel quite flat with unclear edges. I went to the doctors about this and she said they were lymph nodes and nothing to worry about, which put me into a panic. I couldn’t understand how so many lumps could appear and the doctor just says “no worries it’s fine, just forget about it.”
The thing is, I have lymph nodes I can feel all over my body, and these don’t feel like lymph nodes at all. They are softer, more uneven and moveable. I did some research online and I found multiple doctors and people saying that there aren’t any lymph nodes in that area of the body?! Is this correct? Because now I don’t know what to believe. None the less, I am absolutely terrified and no matter how much I try to calm myself down I just can’t stop fixating on it. Does anyone else have lumps such as these on their lower back?
