Is A Lump In The Elbow Crease Related To The Pain In Shoulders?
I have been struggling with a sore left arm....putting my arm in the position to fasten my bra is painful in the muscles around my left shoulder, it hurts while I sleep and I was getting a really sharp pain in my left arm at the elbow crease. I discovered today a small lump in the elbow crease. Are the pains and lump related and should I be concerned?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The lump is likely related to the pain that you are experiencing especially since you are experiencing pain in the elbow where the lump is located.
You can try using an anti inflammatory pain medication to see if it helps.
This includes medication such as ibuprofen, cataflam or naproxen. One of these should be available at your local pharmacy.
I hope this helps
