5 Year Old, Bump On Right Arm. Imaging Done, Bump Related To Lymphatic System. Next Step?
my 5 years old have a bump on his right arm that it was bigger but still remains a lump. Pediatrician made me run a imaging test and said is something related to the lymphatic system and he thinks the bump will disappear in a week or so but I am suspicious it could be cancer. Am i far from true or close enough and what is my next step?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The pediatrician is right, it will definitely disappear if it does not pass away then fine needle aspiration will be the next step, have nice day ( Next time please do not forget to mention whether the baby is male or female it does matter )
