Suggest Treatment For A Lump On The Arm

I had my wisdom teeth removed jan.30th and since then where the doctor put the needle in my arm to sedate me, it s made my arm sore but today I noticed a knot just above the elbow on the inside of the arm and it is very sore and feels warm to the touch...does this sound like a blood clot and if so what do I do?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,Dear,Good evening from INDIA.Thanks for the query to HCM.
I studied your query in details and understood your concerns.
@My impression of your case -is-mostly Abscess post-injection with Induration above elbow.
Treatment-
a-Antibiotics x 2 days
b-Incision Drainage -if un-ripe with partial abscess
c-Aspiration of abscess-if fully ripe abscess
d-Pressure bandage with packaging of the abscess cavity
So Consult a ER Surgeon who would-
do FBS and PPS and would do the needful treatment.
@Hope this would resolve your worrisome query.
Welcome for any further query in this regard,and would love to help you to resolve this problem till it is solved to your satisfaction.
@I would take opportunity to request you to Write strong recommendations promoting my services for the benefit of my new and old patients at HCM clinic.
Wishing you fast recovery..!!
Have a Good Day.
