<human>: I have recently found a swollen area on my upper abdomen under my left breast.  At first, it didnt bother me but now it is accompanied with pain and kind of a tingling feeling.  The swelling has been getting worse as well.   What could be causing this?
<bot>: Hi. Thanks for your query. The swollen area under the left breast and now bothering you due to pain and tingling can be due to the following problems:-The commonest being costo-chon Chat Doctor. -Some other swelling like muscular, from fractured rib and so on. I would advise you the following:-First get an actual physical examination done by a Doctor, preferably a Surgeon.-Get an X-ray of the chest. Ultrasonography to rule out any internal problems in the abdomen. This will give the correct diagnosis and a plan for further management. Till them stop lifting any heavy object. Get the constipation and / or cough treated as this will increase the problems.
