Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a penny sized lump under the skin on my upper, inner, right arm (bicep area) it has a light blue tint to it as if it s my vein. Little to no pain even with contact. Not noticed until just today. Arm has a tingling feeling like it s going numb or has fallen asleep now that lump has been tampered with. No recall of injury or strain to arm. What on earth could this be and is it urgent to be checked out?
Hello this could be lipoma, Ganglion or sebaceous cyst If you can upload me a photograph I will be able to guide you better In my opinion you should consult a general surgeon for examination and it's surgical removal Tingling sensation could be due to pressure effect on nerves Hope this answers your question please feel free to ask for more information Regards
