Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Elbow
I have a pea size lump that moves around near my elbow. The lump doesnt give me pain but if I put any pressure on my elbow it hurts a lot. The pain in the elbow is getting worse over the last couple of days. I only notice this issue they last two weeks.

Hi,The lump near your elbow appears to be boil/ furuncle / or infective origin ,which resolves on its own in 2 weeks time.
I would advise following treatment under cover of your PCP doctor-
Antibiotics /Anti-inflammatory drugs x for 5 days time.
Cold compresses x 2-3 days time.
Hope this would resolve your query.
