    It honestly looks like a polyp, but there is also a large mass too that I can feel and tell doesn't go all the way "far back". It goes back maybe an inch. I'm bad at describing stuff and I can't really post a picture.

      They said that it looked benign, not cancerous but to keep an eye on it.

        We cannot offer any further suggestions other than to reiterate - go see your doctor or a free clinic to get more information.
        That which we forget may as well never really happened.

          if your doctor already said it's benign, are you just not trusting them? Why are you still seeking answers? If it's bothersome, ask about removal. Obviously that's risky, but it's an option

            I'm not seeking answers, it's called an update. They called back yesterday and said it did seem to be malignant tumor and to come in. Thanks.

              What caused them to change their minds? Some test results? That is a heck of a change in diagnosis.

                Test results.
                The lab got to it pretty quickly. I'm high risk for surgery because of my heart and lungs. They're trying to find an oncologist who can come to the hospital.
