Lumps and Bumps Ultrasound Scan
£300 (£50 deposit)
Finding a lump can be worrying.
Most lumps are harmless, but getting them checked offers peace of mind. Our specialist consultants will carry out an ultrasound scan and can get you results the same day, along with clear advice on next steps.
An ultrasound scan for lumps and bumps can detect:
- Cysts (fluid-filled sacs)
- Lipomas (benign fatty lumps)
- Abscesses or infection-related swellings
- Hernias
- Post-surgical or traumatic swellings
- Signs that a lump may be cancer or whether it needs a biopsy and further review
FAQs
Why have the scan?
An ultrasound helps to identify the nature of a lump under the skin. It shows whether it’s fluid-filled or solid, how big it is, and if there are features that suggest inflammation, infection, or something that needs closer monitoring. It’s a first step in deciding whether the lump is harmless or needs further investigation.
What symptoms are related to lumps and bumps?
People often notice a lump that is new or gradually increasing in size. It may feel firm, soft, or rubbery. Some swellings are painless, while others become sore or red. A lump may change in shape or size over time, or appear after an injury or near a surgical scar.
When should I see a doctor if I have found a lump or bump?
See a doctor if a lump is new or growing, if it becomes painful or red, or if it feels fixed and unusually hard. It’s also important to get checked if there are worries about cancer or if the lump develops where you’ve had surgery or an injury before.
