Abdominal Lump
Kidney cancer can cause inflammation or growth on the kidneys. If present, the growths tend to press forward and cause lumps protruding from the abdomen. The lump can be a visible bulge or a thick/firm area. Most kidney cancer-related lumps go undetected if you don’t visit a doctor. The protrusions are best-detected using CT scans or ultrasound. You should never ignore an abdominal lump. It may be a sign of kidney cancer or another serious condition. It may also be something which is less severe, so it’s important to avoid speculation.
