Hopefully whatever you have going on will remain benign. I suggest having a long talk with your doctor, learn about your medical condition. What did your doctor say the mass was? Did your doctor explain whatever it is if it would return? If your doc hasnt given you this info... ask them. By being informed you will feel better about your situation and be a strong advocate for yourself.
Best wishes!
