Hard lumps on body

2022-11-28 13:46:46
I have few lumps on my body, one on forearm and another one above my knee. Lumps are hard and painful little bit when touched. It causes little pain around the area sometimes but it's not too much. It's been more than two months I have this on my forearm. It's not causing much pain so I've not shown doctor. Do I need to worry. Could it be cancer?
