Pain and Swelling In My Back

I visit my new primary care doctor (I learned from the first time, that doctor wasn't the right doctor for me) and describe the pain and my history. He ordered all of my reports and examines me. He doesn't feel anything but he would like for me to go see my surgeon. They agree to see me and Dr. Newman doesn't feel anything either. I know that I have been feeling pain over the last few months but I ignore it to some degree. Dr. Newman reluctantly orders another CT scan prefacing it with these types of tumors typically get confused with scar tissue. He is worried they will misread scar tissue for a new mass. After all, he doesn't feel any. Everyone agrees the area is swollen but they don't feel a mass.
