A man with a large bump on his back has described the excruciating pain he’s in.

The mass behind his shoulder has grown from a ‘gumball’ to a ‘grapefruit’, and he’s now seeking help from Dr Pimple Popper.

The TLC reality programme follows cosmetic surgeon and dermatologist Dr Sandra Lee helping patients across America, which this season has seen a woman with maggots in her toes and a man with 400 tumours across his whole body.

Elsewhere, the show has followed someone with a ‘third boob’ on their shoulder, a tearful grandad with a ‘plum sized nose’ and a woman who had a piece of lead stuck in her hand for 45 years.

Dr Lee’s latest patient has been left in intense pain as the bump on his shoulder grows.

In a preview clip for an upcoming episode, he admits: ‘I call myself the hunchback of Palm Beach County.

‘When I feel it, it’s just very tight.’

He goes on to explain how large the bump has grown over time, saying: ‘When I first noticed this, it went from a gumball to a tennis ball and now it’s a grapefruit.’

His bump is now so big it hinders his work.

The patient, who runs his own construction company, says: ‘The bump has gotten bigger and bigger and bigger, and when I’m working I can always feel pain.

‘Anytime of movement that requires me to look left or right, definitely I can feel pain.’

The preview comes after one patient revealed she had growths on either side of her breasts, claiming she has two extra boobs, with nipples.

‘Two bilateral accessory boobs,’ Dr Lee’s patient Sara begins.

‘I didn’t always have the mass, I did have the nipples.’

Sara goes on to explain: ‘The nipples don’t act like nipples, there’s no sensation to them.

‘They don’t leak during pregnancy.

‘There is darker pigmentation, so the nipple actually shows a little more.

‘As I got older, the mass started getting a little bigger and a little bigger and I started to realise that these were breasts.

‘They’re very pliable, you can move them, I can tuck them in.’

Dr Pimple Popper airs on TLC in America.
