Common Questions and Answers about Lump at my elbow

lump

Avatar f tn My husband has had tendinitis for quite some time. It comes and goes. I have also had tendinitis that comes and goes away on it's own. My husband now has a lump on his elbow about the size of a marble, maybe a tiny bit bigger than a marble. I never heard of a lump forming due to tendinitis - would this be normal? The lump is hard and painful to him when I tried feeling the lump. I told him several times to call the doctor, but he thinks it's just tendinitis.
Avatar m tn t really have a clear answer as to what to do about the hard lump on the tip of my elbow that is hyper sensitive at times and has been with me for over 5 years
1792792 tn?1315355724 At the moment my elbow is bent and as I type this the tingling and odd stinging pain has traveled down to my hand. My veins in my hands and down my arm seem to be bulging and my skin feels all tight and taut. I feel like I need to stretch like an elastic just to type. I have tried to push it away but it hurts A LOT. On top of the pain, it also feels like my arm/hand/fingers are slowly going numb. Pain/numbness is even traveling up to my shoulder...
Avatar f tn What I have noticed that where the lump/cyst is on my forearm, is where it lies on my desk when using my mouse for my computer. Could something like that cause a ganglion cyst?
Avatar n tn Well I should disclose that I live outside my home country so there is a big language barrier between myself and the doctors. The nodule/lump/sac is above my elbow yes. I suppose it could be bursitis. My issue is that this doctor didn't even touch the area or even examine it. Of course I want to avoid surgery, but I want this to go away and soon. I have a kid on the way and need use of both arms. I guess my main question is what should the doctor do in order to diagnose it?
Avatar n tn Around the beginning of Summer, I noticed some type of lump/swelling on my inner elbow, right above the crease on the side closest to my body with palm facing up. My doctor said that it must be a hematoma and that I might have bumped it without noticing. After a several months, the swelling decreased and nearly disappeared, but it has recently come back. There is no discoloration and no lump can be felt beneath the skin when my arm is bent.
Avatar m tn I HAVE A LUMP ON MY ELBOW AND ITS GETTING BIGGER I THINK ITS A SPOT BUT I JUST DONT KNOW
Avatar f tn I noticed I had a lump on my elbow all of a sudden the size of an small egg hanging from the flap of my skin. I could move it really easily and it didn't hurt. Without really thinking about it I massage *** in assumed whatever was in it with just go away. It partially went away and flattened out and I continued working for the day that night I looked at it it was bruised and I showed it to someone and it was still a little bit of it there.
Avatar m tn about six months ago, I was sitting at my desk in my home office and somehow, I discovered a little rubbery bump on the inside of my arm near the elbow. Upon further self-examination, I found I had the same rubbery bump on the inside of my other elbow. They're both somewhat rubbery and movable. I'd say both are each size of an ear bud off of a pair of in-ear headphones. I went to a local walk-in clinic and the doctor there felt them and said they were lipomas.
Avatar f tn The bruise originated back of my arm above the elbow at the bite site, has spread down past my elbow and has almost wrapped completely around my arm, i feel small spasms every now and then in my fingers and if i bend my arm i get pinching pains in the elbow and shoulder, could this be something serious?
Avatar n tn I have a lump on my left elbow it is tender if I lean on my elbow , any idea as to what it might be do I need to be concerned about it
Avatar n tn My 8/9 year old golden retriever has been acting a bit strange lately. She hasn't been eating her food when we give it to her, only a couple hours after. She has a very dry nose. I guess she's been very "lazy" lately, lying around and not responding to anything that usually excites her. I also noticed a tiny lump on her side, that you can kinda move around. She has a strange scar on her "elbow" that she's had since I could remember.
Avatar n tn And then a few months later I got the flu and there are still some palpable lymph nodes I can feel in my throat. And then this elbow thing has been here for a long time. And lastly right at the beginning of my anus on the tailbone/spine I have a small rubbery palpale thing which hasn't grown or shrunk (although it may have shrunk a little). I'm just wondering since it has been two years and I have not had any other symptoms if I can stop being so paranoid about cancer?
Avatar n tn About two weeks ago a two inch lump appeared on my left arm, opposite side of my elbow with the crease thru the center. It is completely painless and felt hard to me. No discoloration or skin issues around it. I visited a doctor who said when she bent my arm it was soft and movable. She says lipoma, I asked for a biopsy to be safe and she said to wait to see if it gets any bigger. What is your advise?
Avatar m tn Hello all. I've had a lump in my elbow crease for a very long time now (years). Sometimes there is no pain at all but sometimes the pain is quite sharp. I'm guessing that's because it might be pushing down on some nerves in my arm. Every doctor that I've gone to tells me it's not a big deal and I shouldn't worry about it. Lately it's been bothering me more often than not. Sometimes when I wake up and extend my arm it is quite painful.
Avatar m tn My 19yr old daughter just showed me a small lump on the inside of her elbow...should I be concerned now or can it wait till the morning? It was a bruise at first for two days, now it's a small lump.
Avatar m tn s that bad it has destroyed my elbow, showing only the tendons. My back has two-three lumps which are also bone like lumps, causes pain and discomfort and swelling. I also have 6 lumps on both feet.
Avatar f tn I also have noticed a lump under my skin on my forearm about 3 inches below where the crease in my elbow bends a little to the left. It only is sore when I push on it to find it to show my husband that it is a little bigger than last time. I am planning to make an appt. with the doctor. Should I make it with my family doctor or a specialist of some kind? What cold this be?
Avatar n tn I have a some what larg lump under my left arm pit that developed some time saturday night. I also have a lump next to my left elbow that followed. they are both very painful and very tender.
Avatar n tn ve been getting these weird pains in my elbows, wrists, knees along with muscle pain in my arms and legs. I had a bout of eczema on my elbow that really freaked me out and I've also noticed a small lump in my wrist. (Are there lymph nodes in your wrist?) I've never registered a fever, sore throat, diarrhea etc.. Can you please assess my risk for std's and HIV? I'm actually hanging out with this girl tonight. I like her..she comes from a good family and is a real nice person.
Avatar f tn Its painful and itches. The redness and soreness seem to be traveling. It is located between my elbow and armpit on inner arm. Any suggestions as to what this could be?
691614 tn?1227464651 yes, happened to me too. Though not after giving blood, but after getting an IV put in and a drug injection for a minor surgery. The nurse had a difficult time getting the needle in (guess the vein was slippery). In any event, it hurt very badly going in and a month later there is still a bruise where she put the needle in a little further down my arm. My vein is hard, and there is a hard lump where my elbow crease is.... it's not hurting at all anymore.
Avatar f tn I noticed a bump at the base of my thumb on my non dominant hand that grew in just a few months. I saw my orthopedic surgeon for a follow up on another issue & he ordered Xrays right away. I have severe osteoarthritis in that joint with no cartilage remaining causing a bone spur to develop. This spur in turn is dislocating my thumb & why I have the bump. My surgeon said that it is very common on non dominant hands.
Avatar f tn I had arthroscopic shoulder surgery 2 weeks ago. This included acromioplasty, bursectomy, and excisional arthroplasty distal clavicle and calcification of rotator cuff. Since about a week post-op I've had some swelling and pain straightening my arm near my elbow on the inside of my arm. What could be causing this?
Avatar m tn I found this knot/lump on my arm recently. Maybe 2 weeks ago. Its between my wrist and elbow. Now my doctor before this even appeared told me after having blood testing done that there was no reason for concern that I wou have cancer. He said that I do not have cancer and for me to quit worrying about it bc life is too short to spend worrying with things such as this.
903138 tn?1266767041 i landed on the underneath side of the forearm, about an inch before the elbow starts. as soon as i got up and looked at my arm, there was a bruise about 2 inches tall and 1 inch across. it was around a cm raised of my arm. the trainer used a golfball to make a hard pad and i used that for the remainder of the game and for about 2 weeks after that. the bruise was then back to a normalish size and purple color. after that i occasionally fell on that part of my arm, but didnt think much of it.
Avatar m tn I am concerned about a lump on my left arm about two inches from my elbow. It seems to be on a nerve because it is causing my arm to shake. the lump hurts. The arm only seems to shake from where the lump is down to the wrist. I think another smaller lump is starting about an inch from the other along the same nerve. Any educated opions would be extremely apreciated. I am currently seeking a doctor. I have an apointment first week of next month.
Avatar f tn I have a visible lump that protrudes about 1/2-3/4 of an inch on my forearm area near my elbow (along my ulna). It is hard and immobile. There is no skin discoloration.
