What Causes Lumps On The Head, Arms And Back?
My husband takes metformin, Januvia, atorvastatin, lisinopril, glimepiride, prevacid. Within the last two days he started on some broad spectrum amino acids. He now has bumps occurring in certain areas of his body -- the top of his head, his arm and now his back. Could this be a reaction with the amino acids to some of the medicine he already takes?

it could be due to lipodystrophy or collection of fat in a nodular fashion due to medication.
