How To Treat Painful And Swollen Lump On Forearm?
A two-parter: 1) I have a lump on my forearm that has been slowly growing for a number of years, but in the last couple day is swelling, and painful. I m concerned. 2) I have been unemployed for awhile, can t get Obamacare (cost, risking the penalty) and I don t want to use the ER as my healthcare. Do I have any options?

Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
It's difficult to diagnose without examining, Based on your description as lump is slowly growing over years it could be benign tumour like lipoma, neurofibroma etc.I advise you to get one FNAC done for exact diagnosis.
Thank you
