Need help, is this a neurofibroma?image
Hi it started around 1.5 month back, two very small lumps formed on each arm, on near tricep and the other near upper elbow region, the pain and the size was similar to a boil and developed fever( recurssive). Was under antibiotics and doctor has asked me to do few tests like dengue and hemogram(everything was fine except the WBC). After a month, many painfull lumps formed on both the arms and legs(knee, lower calf, wrist to elbow region) all these lumps are under the skin and painfull when pressed. And few boils/ulcers on my tongue and inside lips(very painfull), weakness and fatigueness. I visited 3 more doctors ,last one has asked me to do tests again for HEMOGRAM WITH ESR( low platelet _117000 now it is 140000) and ESR around 24%. During the first course, he gave me one anti inflammatory med, and after taking this many lumps got diminished and no pain is there, but developed many new ones after stopping this med(doctor asked me to stop). He is predicting neurofibroma. please help
