How To Treat Large Lumps In Both Of Arms In Elbow?

I have large lumps in both of my arms in the elbow crease on the inside. I can feel 2 seperate ones in the right and they are half the size of an egg, they have been this size for several months. I feel one in the left about the same size, but it grows larger at times then returns to this size.

Hi,

Lumps on arm in elbow crease may be some tumor. It may be either lipoma or fibroma or some other. You consult dermatologist or surgeon to have firm diagnosis. Fibroma or lipoma, both the tumors are benign. If the tumors are not embarrassing, no treatment is required. Otherwise,after thorough investgations, tumors may be removed surgically under local anaesthesia. You do not worry. The surgery is simple. You discuss with your doctor and take dicision...ok. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
