What Causes Lump With Some Pain Due To Arm Hit?
I was hit on my forearm ( ulna area) there is no bruising, no swelling but I am noticing a lump at the general site, with some pain.... I am able to write, and use my arm, but when bumped I have pain. Could I have broken or possibly suffered a fractior and not know it?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The lump is due to the inflammation after the injury.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest using cold compresses to help relieving the inflammation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
