I am just wondering if any else has this
problem...
Below my hips and above my hips I have
these two firms lumps one on each side of
the spine. They are round and feel about
2cm in diameter. They are most
noticeable when I stand up, and you have
to apply a decent amount of pressure to
feel them. If you press hard, they are a
little tender. They have been there for
at least a year (could have been longer
but never noticed before) and they seem
to be the same size.
I am a 23 year old male with no history of
back problems. A couple of doctors said
its just tense back muscle, but they never
really pressed hard enough to feel them.
They are almost as hard as bone and quite
smooth.
Anyone else have these lumps? I am
thinking of seeing yet another doctor.

Hey there,
yeah mate I have the same issue, I am 19
and had the nodules for about 2 years,
originally I thought they came about from
an injury but still only a guess, my
oldman is a gp and has told me they are
known as fibrosytic nodules or something,
they are supposed to leave you if
massaged, mine still live on !!!
If anyone has any other info about this
problem please post it !!!

Back Lumps Posted: 07-07-05 23:02pm
About 4 years ago I was ina car accident
and broke my hip. After that I noticed
lumps like that. I heard it was normal.
For the past few monthes i've been getting
really bad back pain. Tonight it hurt
really bad so I was rubbing my back and I
noticed the lump on the left side where
the pain is, not only is 3x bigger but now
there are 2.

lumps in the back Posted: 06-09-08 00:23am
I guess i am a little late to follow up
but i have the same problem. A matching
pair. Both on either side of my spine in
the lumbar region.No doctor ever said it
was serious but they didnt feel it enough.
I could pinch into my back and feel it
like its a plum in my hand.

Good Morning Everyone,
PLEASE, each one of you go to your doctor
and have him/her examine you for the lumps
you describe. If no satisfaction, then
see another doctor, and preferably a
specialist. Either a spinal surgeon or an
onocologist. Don't delay.
I wish each of you the very best, and do
let us know how things go.
