Question
What should I do if my child has a hard lump on their ribs?
Answer
It is best to opt for surgical removal treatment, as the effectiveness of medication or other conservative treatments is not very ideal. It is recommended to schedule surgery for removal, and secondly, there is a one percent risk of cancer, so it is advisable to seek further examination and treatment promptly. Severe fractures in children can greatly affect the patient’s work, so in addition to active treatment, it is also important to pay attention to daily care. It is advisable to consume more vegetables and fruits, and eat more calcium-rich foods, in order to avoid or reduce the chance of recurrence.
