  5. Ive had a lump for about a year now that developed suddenly. At first, it wasnt painful, just there, and I thought it might be a wart or something similar, so I didnt pay much attention to it. But recently, Ive started feeling pain when I press around it. I have a desk job, so Im wondering if it could be related to that, or if its something else. Its not like a boil, just feels like a skin growth. Im a bit concerned and would appreciate your thoughts.

It is important to have this lump evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause. The sudden development of a painless lump that has now become painful could indicate various possibilities, including an abscess, cyst, lipoma, or even a more serious condition like a tumor. It is unlikely to be directly related to your desk job unless there is a specific injury or pressure point causing the issue.
