What Causes A Flesh Colored Lump On The Elbow Of A Child?

My son has a fleshy colored lump under his skin near his elbow. It does not hurt a lot when i press on it. I had noticed it a few months ago but never really paid too much attention because he always has lumps and bumps (he is a 4 1/2 year old very active boy) what is this?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, all of these could be lymph nodes and these could be physiological and may not be the disease condition but of confirmation clinical examination is the option for right diagnosis as long and the pediatric age is concern, some time it may needs investigations too hope this information helps.
