Found a Lump or Swelling? Book a Specialist Ultrasound Today
A new lump or bump under your skin — whether in the neck, armpit, groin, breast, abdomen, back, or elsewhere — can naturally cause concern.

At London Private Ultrasound, we offer fast, expert-led ultrasound scans to investigate the cause and nature of your lump. In most cases, this is the first and most important step in determining what it is — and what to do next.

✅ Why Book a Lump & Bump Ultrasound Scan?
Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive and highly effective tool for evaluating superficial lumps and swellings. Our specialists assess:
  • Size, shape, and depth of the lump
  • Internal structure (solid, cystic, or mixed)
  • Margins and vascularity
  • Signs of infection, inflammation, or suspicious changes
🧍 Common Conditions We Diagnose
Your lump may be caused by a range of conditions, including:
  • Swollen lymph nodes (from infection or immune response)
  • Sebaceous cysts or lipomas (benign, soft or fatty lumps)
  • Thyroid nodules (front of the neck)
  • Breast lumps (solid, cystic, or complex)
  • Hernias (abdominal or groin bulges)
  • Soft tissue tumours (benign or suspicious)
  • Abscesses or inflamed swellings
📋 What Happens After the Ultrasound?
At the time of your scan, our specialist will:
  1. Explain the findings clearly
  2. Provide a report within 24 hours
  3. Guide you on the next steps, which may include:
    • Booking a Lymph Node Health Check Package (if the lump is a lymph node)
    • A Breast Ultrasound and referral (for breast lumps)
    • A Soft Tissue or Hernia Scan
    • Referral to a GP or Specialist for further tests or biopsy if needed
We ensure you receive personalised, expert advice — right from the scan room.

🔍 Frequently Asked Questions – Lumps & Bumps Health Check

1. Why should I get a lump or bump checked?

Lumps and bumps under the skin are often harmless, such as cysts or lipomas, but in some cases they could indicate infections, swollen lymph nodes, or even early signs of cancer. A proper assessment ensures peace of mind and early diagnosis if needed.

2. What does the Lumps & Bumps Health Check include?

Our check-up includes a targeted ultrasound scan of the lump or swelling to assess its size, structure, and origin. A GP consultation is included to review your results and advise on next steps. If necessary, blood tests or referrals can be arranged.

3. How is the lump or bump scan performed?

The ultrasound is a quick, safe, and non-invasive procedure. Using a high-resolution probe, we scan the area of concern to determine whether the lump is solid, fluid-filled, inflamed, or vascular in nature.

4. Can ultrasound detect if a lump is serious?

Yes. Ultrasound is a reliable first-line tool to differentiate between benign (non-cancerous) and potentially concerning lumps. It helps detect cysts, abscesses, lipomas, lymph nodes, and suspicious solid masses. Further tests may be advised based on the findings.

5. What symptoms should prompt a lumps & bumps check?

You should consider a scan if you have a new lump, a lump that’s growing, feels hard or painful, is red or warm, or has changed in appearance. Persistent or recurring lumps should always be evaluated.

6. Do I need a GP referral to book this scan?

No. At London Private Ultrasound, no referral is needed. You can easily book a lumps and bumps health check online or over the phone.

7. Who should consider this health check?

This service is suitable for anyone with:
• New or unexplained swellings
• Recurrent lumps
• Skin changes over a lump
• Family history of soft tissue or skin cancers
• Post-injury swelling or concerns after surgery

8. Will I get my results on the same day?

Ultrasound scan findings are typically available within 24 hours. If additional tests are needed, your GP consultation will guide you through the results and next steps, usually within the same week.

9. Are blood tests or biopsies included?

Blood tests are optional and can be added if clinically indicated. Biopsies are not performed during this scan but can be arranged if the ultrasound suggests further investigation is needed.

10. What happens if something abnormal is found?

You will receive a detailed report and expert guidance. If the lump appears suspicious, we can help you arrange further imaging, biopsy, or referral to a dermatologist, surgeon, or oncologist depending on the findings.
