Lump in forearm

2019-02-02 03:23:16
I noticed a painless, smaller than a pea sized lump under the skin of my forearm. It does not hurt, feels pretty firm and round. I'm going to consult with a physician anyway. Is there any need for concern?

It can be either lipoma or sebaceous cyst mostly. These r usualy not very harmful. I need to see the picture of ur lump to give a diagnosis

In current medical practice, surgery is the option. But if underlying cause is not taken care, it might come back. But with changes in diet and detox will help u in reducing the chances of further growth.
