Suggest Treatment For Lump Near Crease Of My Elbow

I have a small lump underneath the skin of the crease of my elbow. The lump doesn t stick out and there is a very red bump (possible a pimple?) above it. There is no pain and it has only been there for two days. What is it? Also, I have had multiple blood draws from where the bump and lump are but the most recent one was a little less than a month ago. Could that have something to do with it?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some skin infection or boils or furuncle or something else.
You should go for examination. If needed take a course of antibiotics like cefadroxyl or other cephalosporin. If it doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
