Suggest Treatment For Lump On Arm After Blood Drawn
I had blood drawn about 10 years ago. The tech took three failed tries before a more skilled person cam in. Since then a lump has grown in the inner fold of my arm where the blood was taken. It is soft to the touch, about the sise of a quarter. I had it removed and now it s back again. It doesn t hurt at this size but will it affect my circulation if it gets bigger?

thanks for sharing your health concerns with us!
well, it seems that it could be some hemangioma or arterio-venous malformation and needs opinion from a vascular surgeon!
if you are worried much a doppler study with an FNAC TEST IS THE BEST WAY TO CONFIRM IT! but not to poke it as it can be infected.........
all the best......!
