What Causes Swollen Muscles On My Right Arm?

The muscle on my right upper arm has grown to about twice the size of my left arm. This has been going on for about 6 or 8 months. Starting to look very noticeable. It does not hurt and is know soft, more like a egg growing inside the muscle. Any opinion ?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

* Most likely possibility of egg-like swelling of the muscle is development of lipoma which is a soft tissue tumor of the subcutaneous tissue and excess of the fast growth.

* I would suggest an ultrasound examination of the local part to evaluate the lipoma and get further assistance with an expert surgeon nearby you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
