Question : I have hard raised non- painful lumps on my left elbow. It is within the skin, ie I can pick them up, not attached to the underlying tissue. I have a little on my right elbow, mainly on left. My own theory is t is related to repeated resting of my elbow on desk at work etc

Brief Answer:
Can be fibroma

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely fibroma. If fibroma then harmless. This is benign growth. Better to get it examined by a general surgeon to rule out that.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
