today, I had a client come in for abdominal massage related to long-term issues with digestion, amennorhea and generalized ab pain. She wanted to see if ab massage, and particularly psoas and triggerpoint work would help her with constant cramping. She is a long-term client, so I know her quite well, she comes in normally for massage to deal with neck pain and headaches, so this is only the second time we've done any work at all on the abs.
Well, within 2 seconds of putting my hands on her tummy, I could tell there was something not quite right. I could feel on her descending colon what feels like a whole bunch of bbs. (beebees. However you spell that,) spanning about a 2" area. I start to feel them when pressing in about 1/4". They roll around under the fingers just like a bb too. Very odd, I've never felt anything like it. One of them in particular, the first one I felt, had a sharp point. The client feels no particular discomfort at that depth/location.
I have NO idea what it could be, but I told her to go to her doc ASAP if for no other reason than to get the A-OKAY. I think I may have scared her a little, but she says she has been procrastinating with her check ups. They think she may have endo. I'm wondering if endo could possibly deposit as hard little lumps on the outside of the colon? Or any other thoughts?
