I need someone to talk to I'm scared

[kaylacheyenne]

Noticed this days ago on my son I took him to the doctor and they referred us to a dermatologist and we go on the seventh it is soft and it doesn’t seem to bother him but I’m still freaking out worried sick and I need to know if anybody has dealt with this

Doctors are very likely to refer lumps in that area in case they are related to a lesion which could eventually affect the spinal cord. It's much more likely to be something like a lipoma. Any particularly firm or fast growing lump would be checked to exclude sarcoma or soft tissue tumour. Basically anything near the spine needs checking.

And yes, hitting a lipoma would be a terrible idea. This advice was for ganglion cysts, which are much better treated with aspiration or excision.

I marked the name off of the screenshots and here is what's under findings... guys I am not hitting my child with a Bible 🤣🤣🤛

Btw I am in us. I just Stumbled upon this app while looking for; well, exactly this. ABUNCH of moms to talk to; don't have that here without judgment or hateful comments. I've got what to expect and baby center and Facebook groups and none of them compare to this app right here. Tbh.

Hopefully I'm allowed this app being in US? haha I certainly hope so,

Thanks to everyone with the comfort comments and nice words 🥹 I don't feel to much at ease u til this dr calls. I just don't know why this is happening to my baby.

That's basically saying he has a solid lump, they don't know what it is exactly yet, but it's nothing nasty.

The dermatologist just called and talked to me about it and basically told me what the freaking ultrasound said but it still is considered as indeterminate but it doesn’t raise any suspicions to be cancerous or anything bad but he did say it would be best to take him to the pediatric surgery department to either take it out or take a sample and have it tested to see what it is

I'm still freaking unfortunate:(

What's up OP?

Just still can't seem to stop worrying, it's been a month straight now. I'm exhausted from the worrying.

I think you need to go and book a biopsy and discuss the pros/cons of removal
