hard mass in abdomen

Again i have the exsact same thing & the women who said they can feel a strong heart beat through it stunned me because i thought i was crazy. But i can move this thing around like crazy and its completly painless but i cant always feel it. it randomly appears. for awhile when it was down in my lower stomach i thought maybe it could be a boul movment i really dont know & would like some answers because i have had many ultrasounds and nothing has ever been abnormal and again i am a very small women i find it odd that this many of us have had the same symtoms & docters havent figured it out. help us if anyone can.

Waahahahahahaaaa

I have the same problem...... I feel mine around my beely button and lower and when I press on it, it moves..... It is a little tender when pressed on but other wise it doesn't bother me. Also when I lay on my belly I fell as though I am laying on a ball or something. ugh......... no idea what it is tho.

 

I had all the same symptoms...round lump in my abdomen on right side.  It caused pain.  When i layed down it went away but when i stood up it was there.  Could not see it but felt it.  I had a CT Scan, Ultra Sound, MRI, blood work, Hida Scan, and X Rays....FINALLY my doctor said it could be my kidney...sure enough, it was my kidney.  It came detached and was floating in my abdomen. This is NOTcommon but can happen.  To prove that the mass was my Kidney, my doctor ordered a Standing IVP which is another XRay but standing up with contrast and this was the proof...i had a Petotic Kidney.  The surgery is laproscopic and i was under for 4 hours.  That reattached my kidney to my lungs, muscle, colon and liver.  The proceedure was done with the latest technology 'Da Vinci Robot' and laproscopic.  It is now attached but still have some pains.  It's only been 4 weeks since my surgery so i'm hopeful that the pains go away in time...Hope this helps!

Mine is on the left side and don't hurt it pushes to one side then i push on my belly button and it moves back and it's only on my left side lol

Did you find out what it was? I have the same symptoms :(

I'm not a woman, but just recently I ran into this "problem". A small mass in the lower right abdominal area that I can move around a bit when I lie flat. It isn't painful, more a discomfort when I move a certain way. I hate to go to a doctor, because I'm afraid to find out it's a tumor or something even worse. On the other hand, I'm afraid not to see a doctor.

I've suffered from stomach pain for years from what I believe to be ulcers. Just recently, I started taking mastic gum, manuka honey and apple cider vinegar and that seemed to help me a lot. But, now I have this strange "thing" on my right side. At first, I thought it might be gall or kidney stones, but aren't they confined to their respective organs until they pass through the bladder? This moves but isn't moving through, if you take my meaning.

I have no idea where to turn, but it helps knowing I'm not the only one.

Go to the doctor. It is probably nothing but will probably need to be removed. Trust me, it's better to know than to keep dwelling over it, wondering if it's something serious.

I know this post is over a year old, but I just googled the same related topic and found my way here. o.O  About a week ago, I noticed a type of mini-cucumber-type mass on the right side of my mom's lower abdomen. Same as what everyone else here seems to have described. When I gently press on it, she says it does not hurt; however, I definitely feel like I FEEL something there--and I don't remember it previously. We are going to the doctor's on Monday (in 4 days), so if I can find my way to this website again8-| , I will post an update if it might help anyone else! 

I have the same thing. I feel it pretty much only when lying down... In the tanning bed, about to go to sleep, just resting watching tv. It feels like a boiled egg and it rises then goes away. It doesn't hurt. I can almost see it sometimes, but mainly just feel it. I thought maybe my ovaries but my dr. said that isn't it.... Although he can't tell me what it is. He says not to worry about it though. Ive experienced it for the last 15 years or so and it is just recently starting to occur more and more often. I haven't been overly worried about it until now as I'm experience pain during sex in that exact area... The swelly egg thing happens on both sides and this very recent pain is only on the right so I thought I would just check online to see if I could find anything. I always thought it was just me! Glad to hear its not! Really funny that the tanning bed is a common place to experience it! Ha!

i have the same thing but it will come out and than get really hard than go back down it happens a lot when im eating and lying down .

You can take an anatomy class and it would explain where the muscles, joints, organs and tissues are in ur body. Or you can purchase an college anatomy textbook and read & look at the diaphram of the entire body system. Then when u go to the doctor you can tell them exactly where the syptoms are and you will be encouraged because you are aware of the locations of the organs, muscles, joints, and nerves of your body. You can also learn about the entire body with the anatomy textbook. You will learn about the organs in the body as well. McGraw hill makes a great anatomy textbook but this will not take the place of a professional opinion of a doctor in which you should definetly place your emphasis on.

We went to the doctor and he said it was just a fatty tissue. I didn't agree and had him feel on the other side of my mom's abdomen and he didn't feel the same thing there. So I requested a CATSCAN on the area. He called a few days later and said it was just "subcutaneous fluid" and not to worry at all about it and that it would go away on its own. I could not and would not accept that response. I looked all over the internet for what would cause fluid to build up UNDER THE SKIN and OUTSIDE of any organ. Couldn't find any answers. So I went back to the doctor's office with my mom the next week (she is a stroke survivor and wheelchair bound - - so we had to schedule another RTA Paratransit ride). I told the doctor I want a full blood/lab work up on my mom and that I just didn't feel she was her usual self and that something wasn't right. The "bump" thing had gotten bigger and was now red. A few days later he called us and said to get her to the ER immediately. He said her WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNT was 27,000 when normal is about 10,000. My mom had to have the bump DRAINED. The surgeon and radiologist were SHOCKED to fing 660 ML of PUSS (they thought they were just going to be draining fluid!) They had it tested and found out it was She had a BAD STAPH INFECTION that somehow got into her skin. The surgeon and the doctor and the infectious disease doctor said everyone has this kind of staph (it's not the "mercer" one - however that is spelled) and that sometimes it gets in/under the skin and causes a bad infection. She was in the hospital for a week with that thing continued draining down a long tube and filling into the little plastic ball (even after they took out a lot of it during the procedure!) . Her doctor said he was humbled by me and my persistence in making him run additional tests and look further into it and not simply accepting that he said it was nothing to worry about. I didn't care about that. I just cared about finding out what it was and making sure my mom was ok. We have been back home now for about a month and I need to schedule a follow-up appointment with doc and the surgeon.

I have pain on my left side and sometimes right it is most noticeable when I lay flat on my back , when applied pressure it's very uncomfortable and I feel like I'm going to explode . I havent had my period and it's worrying me and making me stress even tho I took a pregnancy test and they all came out negative . Where it hurts my stomach buldges out & everyone asks me if I'm pregnant . If I was I'd be like 6 months by now & I'm only 95 lbs so I would be able to tell by now . I don't know what's wrong with me . I also always have to go to the bathroom & when I do it's only a little bit ? I'm scared , someone help me :(

It could be a lipoma..I got one on my right side and my doctor did a needle biopsy and that was the result..
