Hi there,
I just noticed something yesterday and a bit concerned. I dont know if its fat accumulation pr some other under lying medical condition (although I had an abdominal us done less than a month ago and nothing major except for speculations of fatty liver).
Im attaching a pic so you dont have to use your imagination. Its right below my ribs, and looks like a triangular lump thats protruding. It catches my attentiom every time I look in the mirror.
Sorry if the imaging is disturbing...maybe you can go by what i wrote and give your opinion from there if you dont wanna look at the pic. Thanks.
Probably just fat. I know you've posted before that you've been losing weight and sometimes when you do, it comes off in some places and leaves odd bulgy spots in other places. Those places will also get smaller as your weight loss continues.
Fat can be pretty firm too, people who don't own any fat of their own might be surprised at how firm it can feel.
If it still feels weird I will get it checked out next month. I am leaving for a trip this Thursday and wont be back til the end of the month. Considering my ab u/s was fine, I dont think it should be anything major...
There is nothing much to worry. As said by Hedgehog, it may be just fat. Anyways if you feel weird its better to consult with your doc ASAP.
