Please Help!!!
Posted: 06-08-07 12:08pm

Ok. I recently found that I can feel a mass in my left side (above my hip bone... In the general area of the colon). The only thing is that it comes and goes. Is this most likely cancer or something else? The best way that I can think to describe the mass is like a tube. It isn't like any tumor that I have ever heard of. Anyway, if anyone knows what this may be, please let me know.

THANKS!

Could be a hernia. Tough to say. I would suggest going to the doctor.

Did you end up finding out what it was? I have something similar but my doctor wasn't sure about it (he said he didn't think it was cancer though). I have another appointment in 6 weeks to recheck it.
