If they are movable, then they are likely fatty deposits. However, without an examination from your doctor, you can not be sure.

What are movable lumps in lower back and not sure if related but an occasional random sharp pain in right buttocks?

It could be back mouse also known as lipoma. I have what feels like several movable lumps just above hip bone.

Also I have fibromyalgia and I think it may be related, so you might want to look into that. Good luck.

How can you tell if its cancer?

The first and most prominent sign of breast cancer is the forming of lumps in the breast. Routine self examinations are highly suggested to the monitoring of existing as well as new lumps. If you do feel that there is a lump or several lumps, consult a physician immediately. Your doctor will schedule a biopsy of the lump or lumps which will determine whether the cyst is cancerous or benign (non-cancerous). After determining the state of the lump he/she will then make a decision to either leave and monitor closely, or remove the lump. Please be aware that not all breast cysts are cancerous, and that seeing your doctor for regular exams as well as routine self examinations is the best way to prevent and treat such conditions. Take care and good luck.

What tube through which food passes into the stomach?

The esophagus is the tube that brings food and liquids from your mouth to your stomach. “Benign” means it’s not cancerous. Benign esophageal stricture typically occurs when stomach acid and other irritants damage the lining of the esophagus over time. This leads to inflammation ( esophagitis) and scar tissue, which causes the esophagus to narrow.


I have a bump that doesn't hurt on the underside of my breast. Could it be breast cancer?

If you have not seen a physician in a while or you have not had a mamogram you should schedule one. Not all lumps are cancerous and not all are not. Please get it checked.
