Had op in 1990 to take part of bowl out, has been so far good since then until rencently.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Just to confirm are you still under the care of a GI doc and if so when did you last see them? Are you on any meds for your crohn's? I have not had this problem myself but was wondering whether the lump is painful? Has it developed suddenly or has it been a gradual thing? Is there any discolouration to the skin that it is over it? I would say if you have not already to get in contact with your doc to get this checked out asap for your piece of mind if nothing else.

Please keep us updated on how you get on.

yes seen doctor think it might be limpoa, waiting for an appointment for scan, spoke to my consultant at the hospital and he seems to think it might be related to Crohns but need to see my doctor again, as for meds just Pentesa and B12.

Thank you for reply

Did the constipation start before you found the lump? I will be keeping you in my thoughts hun and do let us know on how things go.

You no what I think it did! I have not eaten too well last couple of days and feel a little better for it, today eaten more and feel the pain in my back again thanks x

I do know from previous experience that if I have eaten more than usual I will then sometimes get back pain if I then can't go the loo, perhaps for now go onto a low res diet to see if this helps at all. Eating little and often rather than three large meals a day has also been something advised to me in the past.
