What Caused A Lump Under My Skin On My Forearm?

I have a lump under my skin on my forearm, just below the crease where the arm bends. It's about the size of a quarter. It's not hard. Feels more like a pulled muscle when I use that arm. You can physically see it raised up when I use that arm after exercising or using it for a long period of time.

General Surgeon 's  Response
It sounds like you have a lump over your elbow crease. It could be anything from a bursa to a cyst to just muscle tendon post exercise. It requires clinical examination to know precise cause.
