Calcification

There's what looks like a lump at the base of my spine. I had an ultrasound of the "lump" recently and calcification was diagnosed.
The lump is apparently a few small "pebbles" and the radiographer has said they are harmless.
Has anyone else had calcification in this area and if so, can I expect the number of "pebbles" to remain unchanged and not grow?
TIA for your help.

I have no experience personally but I have heard of these.
Assuming that your GP referred you for the X-ray then perhaps discuss your concerns with them once they have the report from the radiographer.

I only have calcification in my legs and have to wear medical tights/ socks every day even at 40c .
