Lump on upper side right arm under skin
Since 10-12 days i have felt a swollen portion on my right arm. Pain is not much. Little light red/blackish of skin. Very very light skin color change. However i do feel pain in other parts of the arm but that was also there as i work on laptop regularly and type a lot. I did a FNAC test and here is the finding:
CLINICAL DETAILS : Ill defined subcutaneus swelling measuring 0.8 X0.4 cms present . which is non tender and
firm Aspiration done from 2 sites
MICROSCOPIC DISCRIPTION : Smears are of low cellularity and shows foamy histiocytes and squamous cells in
heamorrhagis back ground. Few fibrofatty fragments seen
Suggestive of skin appendageal tumor.
What the best that can be done. Is this something related to breast cancer? Any good treatment options.

Hello,
Thank you for your query.
• Based on the information provided, it is difficult to suggest the most appropriate treatment without a proper assessment, as several skin conditions can appear similar.
• Kindly share clear photographs of the affected area in good lighting along with details such as duration of the problem, symptoms, and any treatments used previously.
• I would advise against starting any OTC creams or self-medication, as some products may worsen the condition or delay proper treatment.
• An accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effective and long-lasting results.
You may book a consultation for a detailed evaluation and a personalized treatment plan. I would be happy to guide you further.

Detailed clinical examination is required. Usually appendageal tumours don’t have pain, swelling or redness.
It can be managed with oral medication or removal.
Next Steps
Detailed clinical examination by expert dermatologist dealing in medical dermatology.

It is not related to breast. Better consult a nearby dermatologist and also a general surgeon. FNAC is a small test, if you can get it removed and send it for biopsy, you will get the final diagnosis.
