Rhabdomyosarcoma, a type of cancer that affects muscle tissue, can feel both hard and soft, depending on the location and stage of the tumor.
Hard tumors are often found in deeper tissues, such as the pelvis or abdomen. They may feel firm and non-movable.
Soft tumors are more common in areas like the head and neck, where they can feel spongy or rubbery.
It is important to note that the consistency of a tumor does not determine its severity. A doctor will need to perform a biopsy to diagnose rhabdomyosarcoma and determine the best course of treatment.
