I've noticed a small, hard lump about the size of a pea right under my skin on my upper middle abdomen. Sometimes it feels tender, especially after I work out. Should I be concerned about this? What could it possibly be?

I'm 28 and I've been dealing with these malar bags. I really don't want to go under the knife, so I've been trying different massages and even icing them. Is there anything else I can do to help reduce them or should I consider other treatments? I'm just really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
